Bon Iver is indie folk singer-songwriter Justin Vernon’s current band and most notable music project to date. The band also consists of Mike Noyce, Sean Carey and Matt MacCaughan. The name ‘Bon Iver’ (pronounced “bon ee-VER”) is a play on the French phrase ‘bon hiver’ for ‘good winter’. Vernon independently released Bon Iver’s debut album, For Emma, Forever Ago in 2007, most of which was recorded during a four-month stay in a remote cabin in Wisconsin, USA.
While in high school and college, Vernon founded the indie-rock bands MOUNT VERNON and DeYarmond Edison in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, where he still resides.
Vernon’s self-released debut as Bon Iver garnered critical acclaim, and was picked up by the indie-rock label Jagjaguwar, which gave the album a proper release on February 19th, 2008. The album was released in the UK and Europe by iconic indie 4AD on May 12, 2008.
When released in the UK, For Emma, Forever Ago received 5/5 and “Album of the Month” reviews in both MOJO and Uncut magazines. It is currently the third highest rated album of 2008 on review-aggregator site Metacritic, with accolades from publications including The Village Voice, The Hartford Courant and The A.V. Club.

i really don't understand why 'some' ppl are so wired up about the soundtrack. who cares! they are a lot of great artists out in the world who deserve to be reconized ... being on a soundtrack with this type of magnitude is a dream for any indie musician. more ppl will buy the albums and go to the shows, which mean more money in their pockets. so stop your petty whining ... bon iver isn't just your precious little gift to keep bundled up.
