Skinny Love was the first single released from Bon Iver's 2007 debut album For Emma, Forever Ago. Justin Vernon wrote and recorded the album in his father's isolated log cabin in north Wisconsin, where he had retreated to following the break up of a relationship and his former band, DeYarmond Edison, plus some nasty mononucleosis.
The song was released as a single in the United Kingdom on 28 April 2008.
The song was used in the first episode of Grey's Anatomy's fifth season.
Skinny Love was covered by British artist, Birdy, in January 2011.
