SINGAPORE - American indie folk band Bon Iver will be back in Singapore to perform at the Star Theatre on Jan 17, 2020. Fronted by singer-songwriter Justin Vernon, it played a sold-out show at the same venue in 2016.

The show is part of a global tour that also includes dates in other Asian cities such as Bangkok and Jakarta.

Formed in Wisconsin in 2006, it released its debut album, For Emma, Forever Ago, in 2007.

It won two awards at the 2012 Grammys - Best New Artist and Best Alternative Music Album - for their self-titled second album.
