In anticipation of her forthcoming UK tour, Austin born singer-songwriter Sarah Jarosz has shared a stripped back clip of her performing "Green Lights" - one of the many highlights off her latest longplayer Undercurrent.

Out now through Sugar Hill Records, Undercurrent - Jarosz's fourth album - is her first release since graduating with honors from the New England Conservatory of Music, and her first since relocating to New York City.

"This is the first record I've made since being out on my own and experiencing a lot of changes, and I think that that's reflected in the songs," Jarosz explains. "It's also the first record I've ever made that feels to me like a complete thought, with a beginning, a middle and an ending. It's also the first time I've made an album that doesn't have any covers on it. I wanted it to feel like the rollercoaster ride that is life, so I put a lot of thought into sequencing the songs. It was important for me to start with light, and then go through darker times, and stubbornness and strength and weakness, and then end up on a hopeful note."

Sarah will make a short trip to the UK later this month, featuring a show at London's Union Chapel on November 15.
