As heralded previously on these pages, Sharon Van Etten will release her new album, Are We There, on May 27th on Jagjaguwar.  Until then, you can stream the album now via iTunes Radio HERE.  To our ears, Van Etten hasn’t hit a wrong note in her entire discography, and the new album may be her best yet.  SVE self-produced the album in reaction to many questioning how much of her last (fantastic) album Tramp represented her efforts versus those of producer Aaron Dessner (The National) and others.  Are We There sets the record straight.  Van Etten does it all while arriving “there” musically.  Brava!
