Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory
From the off, Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory is sonically different from Van Etten’s previous work. Writing and recording in total collaboration with her band for the first time, Van Etten finds the freedom that comes by letting go. The result of that liberation is an exhilarating new dimension of sound and songwriting. The themes are timeless, classic Sharon – life and living, love and being loved – but the sounds are new, wholly realized, and sharp as glass.
Reflecting on this new artistic frame of mind, Van Etten muses, “Sometimes it's exciting, sometimes it's scary, sometimes you feel stuck. It's like every day feels a little different – just being at peace with whatever you're feeling and whoever you are and how you relate to people in that moment. If I can just keep a sense of openness while knowing that my feelings change every day, that is all I can do right now. That and try to be the best person I can be while letting other people be who they are and not taking it personally and just being. I'm not there, but I'm trying to be there every day.”
Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory is a quantum leap in that direction.

Love Spells
Love Spells is the mystic lovechild of 20-year-old singer-songwriter Sir Taegen C’aion Harris. Born and raised in Houston, TX, Harris marries ethereal vocals, delicate percussion, and soothing guitar riffs into a dreamy & nostalgic fusion of indie rock, psychedelia, and dream pop. Love Spells is defined by passionate romanticism, his songs revolving around themes of love, intimacy, and heartbreak. A child of the internet age, Harris finds solace in the simplicity of writing & recording music in his bedroom.
