\"SVENew\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Not resting on the laurels of her sensational album Are We There<\/strong><\/em>, one of our highest-placed Best Albums of 2014 <\/strong>(soon come), Sharon Van Etten<\/strong><\/a> appeared on Ellen <\/strong>yesterday and performed a great new song, I Don\u2019t Want To Let You Down<\/em><\/strong>.\u00a0 The song supports the sense that Van Etten<\/strong> is ever-more coming into her own as a songwriter-performer.\u00a0 We love the propulsion (from 2:15 on, in particular) and fuzz-guitar, closing-countdown of the live performance, which should continue to power-up live, beyond the limitations of a TV studio.<\/p>\n

Watch Van Etten’s<\/strong> powerful performance and stream the studio recording of the song below.\u00a0 In addition to this performance, SVE<\/strong> will head out next month on a tour of the globe (dates at bottom).<\/p>\n
