Sharon Van Etten came out of New Jersey writing songs that feel like overheard confessions, and she has spent the years since turning them up louder. Because I Was in Love in 2009 and Epic in 2010 set the tone, all hushed guitar and bruised candor, and Tramp in 2012 brought the coiled, simmering "Serpents", followed by Are We There in 2014.
Along the way she took up acting, playing Rachel on The OA, and in 2019 she came back with Remind Me Tomorrow, where the sound swung toward darker, synth-heavy drama: "Seventeen" charged like a lit fuse, with "Comeback Kid" and "Jupiter 4" right behind it. We've Been Going About This All Wrong followed in 2022, with "Mistakes" among its highlights.
Now based in Los Angeles, she works with a band called the Attachment Theory, with Devra Hoff on bass, Teeny Lieberson on keyboards and guitar and Jorge Balbi on drums, and in 2025 she made them part of the title: Sharon Van Etten & the Attachment Theory. On screen she has also turned up in Never Rarely Sometimes Always and How It Ends.
