Some songs hit you directly in the heart. It’s hard to give reasons why. Maybe you relate with the lyrics, maybe the music just moves you that way. Folky Bon Iver has managed to write one of these songs. Lump Sum is a beautifully layered masterpiece that grabs your ears and begs for another listen. Ambient and earthy, Iver is new on the music circut, but will be in Europe all summer. If you get the chance, you could always see him at the San Francisco Outside Lands music festival. I’ll be there.
