Sharon Van Etten with Julianna Barwick

"Hauntingly beautiful and highly recommended."—Radio Free Chicago

Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter Sharon Van Etten has won widespread acclaim for her instantly engrossing country-tinged voice and emotionally candid lyrics of heartbreak. With epic, her breakout second release, she’s also displayed a growing confidence backed by a full band. That release has been frequently named as an album-of-the-year contender and regularly summons critical raves. Here's one from npr.com: "In a crowded field, she stands out as one of the most beguiling artists I've ever heard. Her songs are heartfelt without being overly earnest; her poetry is plainspoken but not overt, and her elegant voice is wrapped in enough rasp and sorrow to keep from sounding too pure or confident. It all soars but remains wonderfully rough around the edges. I don't want to overstate how much I love this record, but I do plan on being buried with it."
