In advance of the February 7 release of Tramp — Sharon van Etten’s third full-length, and debut for Jagjaguwar — the critically-acclaimed Brooklynite is bringing her inspired songwriting on the road with dreamy folk-rock vets Shearwater. If Tramp’s first single, “Serpents,” is any indication, this tour’s songs — and the entire new album, which was produced by the National’s Aaron Dessner — will be as emotive and introspective as ever, and likely her most expansive work to date. This is a hot ticket. Liz Pelly talked to Van Etten for this week's issue, check it out.
