Justin Vernon just released two fresh tracks from Bon Iver titled “If Only I Could Wait” and “Walk Home,” featuring Danielle Haim on the first one.
Vernon explained that for this second glimpse into fABLE, a single wouldn’t cut it; it had to be a pair. “First, ‘Walk Home’ is a romp where you can’t wait to pull your clothes off fast enough and jump inside bed with your one true lover. And then—the two of singles—‘If Only I Could Wait.’ A duet. A bilateral crying question. How long can the two of us hang on to each other?”
The album SABLE, fABLE will be available on April 11 through Jagjaguwar, co-produced by Vernon and Jim-E Stack, following 2019’s i,i. Last year, he gave fans a taste with the SABLE EP.
I think it’s exciting when artists release new music; we always wonder what surprises they have for us!
The song titles make me curious about the stories behind them.
