Sharon Van Etten – Tramp

The shimmering sound of TRAMP both defies and illuminates the unsteadiness of a life in flux. During the 14 months of scattered recording sessions, Sharon Van Etten was without a home – crashing with friends and spreading out her possessions between various locations. The resulting album is an assured and strident one, and TRAMP showcases an artist in control of her powers, incorporating vivid arrangements and instrumentation into the songwriting.
