Sharon is from New Jersey with strong roots in Tennessee. She now lives in Brooklyn, NY.

Her songs are available on myspace (www.myspace.com/sharonvanetten) and her website (www.sharonvanetten.com)

She went on her first UK tour with Meg Baird in January 2008. Sharon toured with Great Lake Swimmers on their European tour in May 2009, kicking it off with a show in London with Beirut and Shearwater. She again toured with them in September/October 2009.

On May 26th, 2009, she released “Because I Was in Love” on Language of Stone (www.languageofstone.com) on 12” vinyl, CD and MP3.

Sharon is the first artist to record in 2010 for the Weathervane Music Project’s Shaking Through video series. http://weathervanemusic.org/

On September 21, 2010, Sharon’s sophomore album, “epic.” was released on Ba Da Bing. The powerful 7-track album featured much more instrumentation than her first, primarily acoustic affair. The evolution of her sound proved that she is much more than a traditional folk singer-songwriter.

jmanzo2009, the last line is: "Even in line I wait for another, don't you?" presumably, it's the "don't you" you're confusing for "dogtooth"?

Does anyone have a clue what she says at the end of in line? It sounds like dogtooth to me, but maybe that's because I like that movie a lot.

I'm listening to Tramp almost daily. I just hope I don't wear it out, but I don't think that's possible.

Oh man, straight rock instrumentation is the worst! I don't know, I liked the longer songs on Epic a lot (like "Dsharpg") but Tramp has its own thing going on, and it's at least just as good. It's muscular and she sounds very confident.

Having listened to Tramp a few times now, got to say it's a very nice record. Saw her play in Utrecht last year, and true story: she wanted to play a new song, but forgot which key it was in, so Aaron Dessner had to leap forward to tell her (she was supporting The National in a festival). Chatted with her afterwards and she's a lovely person.
