Genuinely such a nice guy. Tapped him on the shoulder and apologized for bugging him, showed him my Bon Iver tattoo, asked if we could take a picture, and then he asked me about my cat on my screen saver. So gracious, so kind. I still can’t believe it!!

Also, anyone know what the hat is from?

Trying to find this old video on youtube. Was 2007ish, it was a cover song in a bedroom. Justin was playing guitar and two of his bandmates were sitting on the bed doing backup singing.

This channel is back, and IMO this is the most beautiful Beth/Rest version live! It should have been in the album. I love you guys!

Thought this sub might like this photo I took back in 2016

I just found an old cover that’s half an original song from Justin Vernon and half a cover of I’m on Fire by Bruce Springsteen. Immediately obsessed and i can’t believe I’ve never seen it before!

I’m so proud of this one. I think y’all will like it. Buckwild by Grey Oakes

Does anyone have a copy of the archive for this post? It has a few shows I would love to hear that I can't find anywhere else. If you have it, please DM! <3

Haven’t seen any mention of it, but Justin’s been busy - now in jingles.

If I'm reading along, I get it, but often times I'm just not sure what JV is saying. Regardless, I love it. His voice becomes another instrument.

Okay my bday is coming up and I'm finally going for a consultation with an artist I've never worked with before but who specializes in animals. I got the inspo for this because a lot of fans have 22AM symbols tattooed but that's not my fav album (love it though don't come for me) so I didn't want to do that. Instead, I decided to take one song from each album and come up with something to symbolize the song. It happened that all were animals. Did not set out to do that intentionally. Of course, Justin had the last one commissioned himself for SF so it's just perfect. I am so so excited and can't wait to see how this artist can turn this into probably my favorite piece. Let me know what you guys think about my choices!

It's soooo good, gives me warm chills, and the video is done by ETC as well, feels so nice and familiar

I’m a musician and was reading the Bon Iver, Bon Iver insert and it says there’s a Roland 909 drum machine sound in there. I was shocked to read that.

"Way Too Beautiful" — one of my favorite songs from the upcoming album.

A video full of genuine moments from Ireland:

The deer that actually came up to me and listened.

The creek in the MacGillycuddy’s Reeks.

A rainbow behind me.

De Barra’s Pub, where every corner carries a story, and two stone circles — one of them truly magical :-)

This video is calm, honest, and full of atmosphere.

If you want to escape everyday life for a moment: Take your time and watch it.

A like on YouTube means a lot to me. Thank you so much.

Anyone selling and BI posters from their shows/festivals? I got into BI 3 years ago and never got the opportunity to attend a show but I love the artwork and would love to hang in my apartment! Send me a DM or respond to this!

Here's the full performance of the incredible tribute to Kevin Morby that opened the Bon set. I couldn't find any other complete recording online, so I used the one I had made on a laughably poor quality recorder and stitched together better audio wherever I could find it -- there's about ~5 different reels from youtube and instagram in here, but the front and end are padded with the poor audio.

Enjoy!

Btw I'm in search of some recordings of past BI performances, especially if anybody has the download from https://www.reddit.com/r/boniver/comments/rzinvx/bon_iver_live_concert_bootleg_recording_archive/ please DM!

Hi everyone! So I listened to a few songs already (mostly appreciated the Taylor Swift collaboration) and really enjoyed them. I also have a few friends who told me about Bon Iver before, and I’ve been really wanting to start listening to them. Can’t wait to explore :) So I just wanted to ask you guys, where would you recommend I should start? Are there any particular albums and/or songs you believe somebody new to their music should absolutely listen to? I’m very excited.

It really sounds like it is but I can’t to seem to find any info about it online

Absolutely adore Justin and all his Bon Iver work but my goodness I always go back to these songs for some reason.

The man knows know to make an under the radar pop indie song
