I’ve been listening to this all morning and thought I should share it with you folks out there:
Sharon Van Etten
Because I was In Love
The album is incrediby beautiful.
It was recorded by Greg Weeks of Espers and is mostly Sharon’s voice and guitar. Weeks additions echo the Espers sound, as one would expect, but they are only a means to modestly yet beautifully dress up Van Etten’s heartwrenching songs.
I liked this description of her voice from BuschwickBK.com:
“There is no bravado, no ego, just poignant lyrics, floating melodies, and a voice like silk and milk and tears.”Here’s a video courtesy of Hooves On the Turf
Sharon will be coming to Burlington in late July, so keep an eye or two open for that one.
One Comment
Sharon is amazing.
