Iron & Wine has announced the release of Hen’s Teeth (Deluxe Edition), which will be available worldwide on September 22, from Sub Pop. This expanded edition features six new recordings in total: four previously unreleased songs along with acoustic versions of two fan favorites from Hen’s Teeth. The four unreleased songs come from sessions done in Los Angeles during the recording of sibling records Light Verse and Hen’s Teeth.  “California Sober,” available today, was the last song written and recorded during the sessions, and its playful nature, hinted at in the title, is the perfect way to wind down summer while easing into fall.

Along with “California Sober,” Iron & Wine is also sharing an acoustic version of “In Your Ocean,” which captured the hearts and attention of fans at radio when it was released earlier this year. This acoustic version brings an intimate take on this beloved song. Hen’s Teeth was released in February of this year and featured two duets with the multi-Grammy-winning band, I’m With Her, along with a cast of musicians including Griffin Goldsmith, Sebastian Steinberg, David Garza, Beth Goodfellow, Paul Cartwright, Tyler Chester and Kyle Crane.
