From The Desk Of Devendra Banhart: Jon Beacham’s Publishing House

Life after 30 finds the original freak folker putting away hippy-dippy things. Meet Devendra Banhart Version 2.0: shorn, showered, shaved, engaged, focused and wearing a shirt. He’s also making the finest music of his career. New album Mala (Nonesuch) is the best thing he’s done since his debut. Guest appearances are few and far between, so what comes through is the thing that’s always been Banhart’s greatest asset: himself. He will be guest editing magnetmagazine.com all week. Read our recent print cover story on him.

Banhart: This is Jon Beacham’s publishing house. He is doing amazing work, with a scrupulous eye for font, depth of indentation, spacing, paper stock, size, spine/binding—the complete package. His workshop/store is in Brooklyn, and I highly recommend dropping by and picking up a copy or two of anything he’s published; he’s a true master!
