The Everybodyfields' 2005 album "Plague of Dreams" offered a more country-inflected sound than Sam Beam's simultaneous Iron & Wine work, with the band providing a fuller, more driving rhythm section to his songwriting. The album features contributions from various musicians, highlighting Beam's versatility and collaborative spirit outside of his solo endeavors.

• "Plague of Dreams" was released on Ramseur Records, a label co-founded by the band's manager, Jeff Ramseur.
• The album was recorded at Studio 808 in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
• The release date of September 15, 2005, placed it between Iron & Wine's "Our Endless Numbered Days" and "The Shepherd's Dog," a period of prolific output for Sam Beam.

The Everybodyfields were an Americana band from Charlottesville, Virginia, known for their blend of folk, country, and rock influences. The band was a project of singer-songwriter Sam Beam, who also performed as Iron & Wine.
