Bon Iver Performs Previously Unheard Song
Eau Claire natives Bon Iver celebrated the 10 year anniversary of For Emma, Forever Ago here in Milwaukee. The folk album, exhausting every inch of lost love and abandoned dreams, was once an unexpected breakout. Today it is cemented as one of the most important indie albums of the past decade. In addition to a full set, Bon Iver played a song “written in the same time as these other batch of songs“ titled “Hayward, WI.” This previously unreleased song follows Vernon’s December 2017 release of a new song at a concert in Richmond, Virginia.
