"Lovers' Revolution" comes from Ghost on Ghost, the fifth full-length Iron and Wine album, released in 2013 on 4AD, with Nonesuch handling it in the US. Sam Beam wrote it, sings it, plays guitar on it and produced it with Brian Deck, and the cast around him tells you where his head was at: Brian Blade on drums and percussion, Rob Burger on piano and organ and writing the arrangement, Briggan Krauss on saxophone and Doug Wieselman on reeds. Neil Strauch engineered, with Don Piper assisting.

That lineup suits the album's drift toward jazz, pop and R&B, a looser, easier-breathing record after two albums whose nervous edge Beam wanted to shake off.
