Bon Iver, not the most popular and mainstream musician I have ever seen, but that is why I'm going to enlighten you on this man. Just recently my friend was watching a long boarding video, and Iver's song, Skinny Love was playing in the background. Just listening to the 30 second clip of his song, made me run to my computer and find this artist, I needed to find out who he was. Once I did find it, I listened to his album, and assested it. I discovered Bon Iver wasn't your regular musician. Listening to it, I felt that I was just in the wilderness, relaxing my life away. The music he plays is very calming and gentle, no crazy dance beats or rap, just a nice old accoustic guitar. His whole Album, which is For Emma, Forever Ago is filled with amazing accoustic strums. Ivers voice is very grainy, but I think that makes his music unique, because he isn't like everyone out there, he is kinda like a Bob Dillon. I would say the best song on this album is definitly Skinny Love, but Flume doesn't fall far behind. If you are looking for a nice cool evening where you just want to chill and tune out to some music, then For Emma, Forever Ago is definitly for you. Also, if you are a Twilight fanatic, one of his songs is on the New Moon soundtrack.
