Iron And Wine Biography

Using his husky whispery voice over mostly-acoustic tunes Beam sings songs steeped in the imagery of the rural South.
Beam (born July 26 1974) grew up in Irmo South Carolina obsessed with two things: art and music. In my room the radio was really always forever on Beam would recall. I grew up drawing. I was always drawing all the time with the radio on.
When Beam went to Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond Virginia studying fine arts thinking he'd be a painter. But he ended up getting into photography and that lead to the study of cinematography at Florida State University where he'd meet his wife Kim.
The couple moved to Miami so that Kim could pursue her studies in midwifery and coincidentally enough started churning out kids (these days Beam is the father of five daughters). Feeling the need to support his family Beam shelved the small self-made films that were consuming his time his only foothold in Hollywood being a non-union lighting engineer not even important enough to make the final credits on the Mel Gibson/Heath Ledger revisionist civil-war picture The Patriot and got a professorial gig teaching cinematography at Miami University.
