Sharon Van Etten

[Clarence Clemons]

had penciled her in as a must see for 2019, but god knows what happened and didn't end up catching her. Reading reactions of those above now - really regret it 😔

strikes me as someone who would be great live. Will lookout for the new album, and awesome to see some love for sunflower bean above also! @kingcrawler

Great news. I'm hoping to catch her at Primavera as I'll be travelling down to Glastonbury when she's playing her Glasgow gig but I certainly wouldn't complain if she made her way onto the lineup. 

6th May looks ridiculous for new albums. Sharon Van Etten, Arcade Fire, Sigrid, Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever, Sunflower Bean and Warpaint. 

Wait, what?!

Just noticed that neither of the singles she’s released over the past couple of months are on the album. Baller move. Guess she really means it when she says she wants it all to be listened to in one go. Really looking forward to this, and loving this minimal album rollout that a few artists seem to be taking lately. Fuck a year long rollout.

Agreed.  I find the long rollout obnoxious. ie, the wet leg approach that's been discussed in the other thread.  not their fault, more the label I presume. I usually give the first single a listen and then wait for the album to hear the rest.

I’d seen there was new material due but hadn’t clocked the album release date. 

Not long to wait!

I’ve never been more excited about a birthday in my life.
