Bon Iver has decidedly been on the back burner for the last two years, as frontman Justin Vernon has explored a myriad other projects. Today, he’s shared a song off the soundtrack to the follow up to Zach Braff’s cult classic Garden State, Wish I Was Here. Stream “Heavenly Father” over at NPR.

Hit that link for the story of its conception, which plays out exactly the way one would expect Justin Vernon to get inspired: he just started humming quietly after watching a rough cut before crying out the title of the song. 

Whether this portends new substantial material from Bon Iver sometime in the future or not, Vernon will be playing with Volcano Choir at September’s Boston Calling.
