Sharon Van Etten's latest album is her seventh and first with her group The Attachment Theory.
The new album,
Sharon Van Etten & the Attachment Theory
, is the result of collaboration with her former touring band in the Californian desert.
Despite previously being averse to jamming, Van Etten says she went against her own intuition and encouraged her bandmates to jam along with her at the end of a long week of rehearsals.
The results left her inspired and this collaborative approach with her band became the backbone of the new record - her first full-band release.
