The songs, titled ‘If Only I Could Wait’ (featuring Danielle Haim) and ‘Walk Home’, will be released on Friday (March 14) with their own lyric videos. Before that, a special preview of both tracks will stream live from In Such A Small Time Frame, the 24/7 trail camera feed and art installation that  Justin Vernon quietly set up in the trees of Wisconsin in October. Ever since installing it, he has been using it to send messages to a devoted group of viewers.

Fans can tune in for the early listening event at 6pm GMT tomorrow (March 13) here.

Both songs will appear on Bon Iver’s fifth studio album ‘SABLE, fABLE’, which is due for release on April 11 via Jagjaguwar (pre-order/pre-save here).

It’ll mark Bon Iver’s first full-length record since 2019’s ‘i, i’, and follow last year’s ‘SABLE’ EP. The three songs featured on the latter collection – ‘Things Behind Things Behind Things’, ‘S P E Y S I D E’ and ‘Awards Season’ – will all appear as the opening three tracks. It also features the single ‘Everything Is Peaceful Love’.

Other track titles include ‘Short Story’, ‘Day One’ (feat. Dijon and Flock Of Dimes), ‘There’s A Rhythm’ and ‘Au Revoir’.

Produced by Vernon and Jim-E Stack, ‘SABLE, fABLE’ was primarily recorded at Vernon’s April Base studio in Wisconsin. A press release notes that the “conceptual genesis” for the LP occurred in early February 2022, “when Stack arrived at the Base with Danielle Haim”.

It adds: “Snowed in for multiple days, Vernon and Haim’s voices intertwined on ‘If Only I Could Wait’, a duet with crucial perspective, about not having the strength to be the best version of yourself outside the glow of new love.”

The description continues: “Like fables, each track instils a lesson, and ‘…fABLE’ is about the selfless rhythm required when one is enmeshed with another person or lover – a patient commitment to finding the pace for betterness, and togetherness,” the description continues.

“Gone are the evasive and dense layers of sound that guarded Justin Vernon’s voice on ‘i, i’ and [2016’s] ’22, A Million’. The previous four albums were a cycle of seasons that is now complete; ‘SABLE, fABLE’ is a canvas for truth laid bare.”

In a four-star review of Bon Iver’s 2024 EP, NME wrote: “‘SABLE’ can serve as a reminder of the light at the end of the tunnel, and a reason to push through adversity – to move forward onto a new chapter.”
