Bon Iver releases music video for “Everything Is Peaceful Love” directed by John Wilson
Earlier in the week, the revelation of a fresh Bon Iver album, with a hint, was put forward that the primary song would be released on Friday. Keeping his promise, Justin Vernon has reemerged this Valentine’s Day with the aptly named “Everything Is Peaceful Love.” The track includes a visual masterpiece directed by John Wilson who is known for his work on HBO’s “How To with John Wilson,” sure to bring a grin to your face.
In a declaration, Vernon expressed, “I had a clear vision of the record I wanted to create the day ‘Everything Is Peaceful Love’ was produced. I always understood that this would be the emotion I desired to convey first. For the video, I just wanted to witness people smiling uncontrollably. Fortunately, Eric Timothy Carlson proposed reaching out to John Wilson from ‘How To With John Wilson.’ It is undeniably the most thought-provoking and humorous program on television. We were incredibly fortunate that John appreciated the concept. He embarked on filming a myriad of enjoyable visuals and edited them in harmony with the song. This accomplishes everything I desired for this album within one video. The notion that happiness and joy are paramount and the true essence of survival, believing that taking oneself less seriously could potentially mend the world.”
“Everything Is Peaceful Love” sets the stage for Bon Iver’s upcoming album, “SABLE, fABLE,” scheduled for release on April 11 through Jagjaguwar. Serving as the group’s fifth album and a follow-up to 2019’s “i,i,” the album was crafted alongside producer Jim-E Stack, featuring appearances by Dijon, Flock of Dimes, and Danielle Haim.
The emergence of Bon Iver’s latest creative endeavor heralds a promising musical era with a glimpse of the unique artistry and sound that fans have come to anticipate from the talented group. As fans eagerly await the unveiling of “SABLE, fABLE,” anticipation builds for the sonic journey that Bon Iver will undoubtedly send listeners on with their mesmerizing melodies and inspired storytelling.
