The Shepherd's Dog

Released 2007Folk & Singer-Songwriter
Classic

A richer, more rhythmic folk peak of layered arrangement. Warm and acclaimed. A high point. Released in 2007, it's a key entry in Iron & Wine's run.

On vinyl: Vinyl can be scarcer than the CD from this era, so it's worth looking for a recent repressing.
