Iron and Wine have announced forthcoming UK dates.

The singer-songwriter, better known as Samuel Beam, will play two London dates in London in October. The first date at the Hackney Empire on October 9 will be an acoustic performance with Marketa Irglova from The Swell Season, whilst the following day will see a full performance from the band at the O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire.

Tickets for the gigs go on sale on June 10 at 9am.

Iron and Wine are also set to appear at both the Latitude and Green Man Festival this summer.
