A limited edition for the release of Bon Iver’s new record, SABLE, fABLE.
Bon Iver × Field Notes
Limited Edition Bon Iver 2-Packs
These Pair Nicely
We’re very excited to be a part of the release of an ambitious new collection of work by a long-time favorite of the Field Notes crew, Bon Iver.
Taking a cue from the beautiful and spare design of the records we’ve created a very limited number of 2-Packs of graph-grid Field Notes Memo Books. They’re available for pre-order now and will ship in a week or so.
The covers are printed on 100# Sappi McCoy Silk stock and the innards feature a graph grid in a matching salmon color. Use them for a to-do list, play list, or set list. Write a lyric. Write a melody. Write a song.
About the Music
“Bon Iver’s three-song collection SABLE, was a prologue mired in darkness, a controlled burn clearing the way for new possibilities. fABLE is the book that follows. Where SABLE, was a work of solitude, fABLE is an outstretched hand. Radiant, ornate pop music gleams around Vernon’s voice as he focuses on a new and beautiful era.”

Two singles, “If Only I Could Wait (featuring Danielle Haim)” and "Walk Home” are available now on all streaming platforms, and also, alongside visuals featuring looping animations and lyrics, on YouTube.
