When New Jersey singer/songwriter Sharon Van Etten released her debut album 'Because I Was In Love' way back in 2009 she was in complete charge, but step forward to 2025 and her eighth album release is a collaborative effort with three other bands members, all playing a big part. Van Etten describes the scene when rehearing for a tour in the desert: “For the first time in my life I asked the band if we could just jam. Words that have never come out of my mouth – ever!” Within an hour they had come up with two songs and, as they say, the rest is history.
