Sharon Van Etten, “Remembering Mountains (Live),” La Maroquinerie, Paris, France, 1 December 2014; released on Remembering Mountains: Unheard Songs of Karen Dalton LP (Tompkins Square, 2015)
There has been more and more attention to Karen Dalton since someone reminded us all that Bob Dylan had previously mentioned her as a favourite back in the early folk club days. Here is Sharon Van Etten singing her praises indeed . . . . . . . thanks as ever and always to O My Soul
Best song lyric of the week "I washed your dishes but . . . . . . . . . . . . “ Brilliant!
I’m in trouble.
Sharon Van Etten Keep (2009)
"Keep still so I can find you at your whim
Breathe slowly so I can breathe with you
I want you to keep me to yourself
Keep running deep under my skin"
we love Sharon . . . . . . .
Thanks as ever to O My Soul
Sharon Van Etten has been in near constant motion since she emerged in 2009 as one of indie rock’s most distinctive and lovely voices. Over the last 13 years, she has formed bands, explored rock and electronic sounds and written some of popular music’s most wrenching, self-revealing songs. In 2016, she had a minor but memorable role in the Netflix series the OA, lending her unearthly voice to the show’s plotline about death and rebirth. That same year, she got married and got pregnant with her first child, but family life has, if anything, centered her and made her better at what she does. She’s become more visible and more of a force with every album she’s released. In 2021, some of the music industry’s heaviest hitters—including Lucinda Williams and Fiona Apple—paid tribute to her songwriting skills, reinterpreting the ten songs from her 2010 album Epic.
