Sharon Van Etten - Live in Concert
Saturday, May 17, 2014 at 2:01PM
The intimate upstairs of the Columbus Theatre seats just 200 people. Little surprise then that Sharon Van Etten took the stage to an salivating sold-out audience. Van Etten played Providence before, but you’d be forgiven if you missed it. She played a house show with locally-based Orion at the home of Alec K. Redfearn some five years ago.
Since then, things have changed a bit and there was reason to celebrate, chiefly the release of her new record Are We There.
The album, her fourth, adds to the artists’ catalog of evocative, emotional and outright excellent songs. Her voice appears at once assured but always with a tender touch.
Combined with subtle surety in her lyrics, Van Etten stands out as a bright star in the crowded singer-songwriter constellation. With tight harmonies and talented musicians behind her, Van Etten also makes for a captivating live show.
You can now stream Are We There Yet on iTunes here and check out more tour dates here. Be sure not to miss her. It may be another five years before she comes round again.
