Sharon Van Etten presents the official video for ‘No One’s Easy to Love’ off Remind Me Tomorrow, her “most atmospheric, emotionally piercing album to date” (Pitchfork). The video was directed by mentor and previous collaborator Katherine Dieckmann, who directed the “Jupiter 4” video and whose photograph graces the cover of Remind Me Tomorrow, and was filmed at Empire State Plaza in Albany, New York. “Happy to share another video I made with my dear friend Katherine Dieckmann. Stark, simple, raw,” says Van Etten. “She allowed me to be myself as she took the reins with capturing my performance in her favourite part of downtown Albany.”
Van Etten has had an incredible 2018 since the release of Remind Me Tomorrow. She kicked off the year returning to Jimmy Kimmel Live! and The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and performed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Additionally, The New York Times Magazine named lead single ‘Comeback Kid’ one of “The 25 Songs That Matter Right Now,”while “Seventeen” was discussed in depth by Van Etten on Song Exploder, and recognized as a best song of 2019 by ELLE and ESQUIRE. Remind Me Tomorrow continues to garner glowing praise: it’s Exclaim!’s #1 album of the year so far and is featured prominently in mid-year lists by Billboard, Stereogum, Paste, The Guardian, Thrillist, and more.
“Change is good, but change as interpreted and belted out by Van Etten at her most curious and confident is even better.” – Billboard, 50 Best Albums of 2019 (So Far)
“Remind Me Tomorrow is anthemic but not saccharine, melancholic but not austere. Van Etten embraced the chaos to create a bold and unsparing work that captures a vast emotional range — you can’t help but feel it all.” – Exclaim, #1 in Top 29 Albums of 2019 So Far
“An ambitious and richly produced album, with buzzing industrial electronics newly folded into Van Etten’s torrid indie-rock songcraft: here are big emotions splashed across an even bigger canvas.” – The Guardian, Best Albums of the Year So Fa
“Sharon Van Etten was already one of the great lyricists of the ’10s, but with this breathtaking project, she’s proved an artistic pliancy her contemporaries may not possess.” –Paste, #3 in The 25 Best Albums of 2019 (So Far)
Recognized by Pollstar as a Hotstar cover story, Van Etten continues to sell out tours around the globe in support of Remind Me Tomorrow. She recently played a sold-out Auckland, Powerstation show to rave reviews.
“Anyone who saw Sharon Van Etten last night at Auckland’s Powerstation will be convinced. The woman is a rock star.” –Stuff.co.nz
“The cold air mixing with the pulsing lights, the smoke on stage, Van Etten’s soaring voice, the driving bass of the band, and of course the chimes, created a sense that the crowd had been transported away into some otherworldly plain.” – Undertheradar.co.nz
“With Van Etten sermonising, the anesthetised mess of life, love and complex history seem worth it in the end.”– Radio NZ National
