#7 | Sharon Van Etten | Remind Me Tomorrow
Jagjaguwar
According to Liz Itkowsky: “Sharon Van Etten is an unnaturally consistent songwriter. Each track is imbued with pathos, often just a breath in between the staggering joy and sorrow. The strong Springsteen influence and creative production are a delicious pairing. The album is rooted in folk music (in a Springsteen sense), still built on simple storytelling, guitars and pianos, but synthesized with a modern sheen. In the opening track, Van Etten claims, “I told you everything, about everything.” Even if the material and formula have been heard before, Remind Me Tomorrow feels brand new.”
