Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory unveil new single, "Southern Life (What It Must Be Like)"
Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory have shared "Southern Life (What It Must Be Like)" as the latest preview of their forthcoming self-titled album.
"Southern Life (What It Must Be Like)" is about “trying to understand people with very different perspectives and backgrounds, while also trying to be compassionate towards our past, present, and future selves," Sharon Van Etten explains.
One of the first two songs written with the band in the desert at Gatos Trail in the Yucca Valley, the song materialised off the cuff following a rehearsal for the We’ve Been Going About This All Wrong tour. “After days of rehearsing the songs from the album and how to execute them live, I was getting tired of hearing myself. I didn’t want to over rehearse the songs to death. And so, for the first time ever, I asked if the band just wanted to jam – play without it having to be something, to clear our heads,” Van Etten explains.
Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory is out on 7 February via Jagjaguwar, and is available to pre-order now.
