"Want to take you outside, want to show you the sky,"

After reading tweet after tweet about what was going on at SXSW I noticed one reoccurring theme, people were absolutely losing it over Sharon Van Etten. Having recently purchased my ticket to see Ms. Van Etten and the National at MusicNow, I threw on her most recent record Epic, grilled out and watched the super moon. No offense to the celestial occurrence or my ability to cook pork on the grill but giving Epic another listen was the highlight of the night.

Her songwriting is unapologetic in its honesty and vulnerability but nothing about the delivery makes her a victim.

Sharon Van Etten Don’t Do It
