Now that Bon Iver is a bonafide arena act, with a show at Wembley announced just yesterday, this iTunes session is possibly the most intimate we’re going to experience him these days. Expect stadia-sized antics to follow shortly: Muse-like UFO displays, Rammstein-esque fire theatrics and probably enough lights to power a town the size of Milton Keynes. Maybe.
Either way, check out this rendition of ‘Beth/Rest’, a take from the musician’s recent self-titled album and a song that sounds like it should soundtrack the end scene of Crocodile Dundee.
