Iron & Wine has released a new video for their song “Last Night,” off of their 2017 album Beast Epic. The new stop-motion clip was created by Rachel Blumberg, who has worked on videos for Gillian Welch and Nada Surf along with others and shows a couple spending their last night together before they part ways. It seems as though the woman is upset with her boyfriend with him regretting he did to cause the end of their relationship.
