Coming Out: Iron & Wine, Around the Well + MP3

Don’t hold your breath, Iron & Wine fans. (Get it!?). Sam Beam, he of the breathy voice (aw, now you get it), and the man behind I&W, is not releasing a new album, per se. But on May 19, he’s dropping a double-CD (three LP) collection of rare and unreleased tracks titled Around the Well. Several of the songs on the set were originally written for the Topher Grace-Scarlett Johannsnenenen-Dennis Quaid office-comedy vehicle In Good Company including “The Trapeze Swinger,” which you can grab courtesy of Sub Pop below.

The set also includes covers of the Flaming Lips “Waiting for Superman” and New Order’s “Love Vigilantes.” Beam’s setting out on a short, five-city tour in May (dare to dream), and plans to release his next studio album in ’10.
