SHARON VAN ETTEN unveils video for ‘Headspace’

Sharon Van Etten releases a new video for ‘Headspace,’ a track off of her epic new album, We’ve Been Going About This All Wrong, out now on Jagjaguwar.

‘Headspace‘ is “a declaration of need set to a dangerous, industrial throb that’s strewn with sonic detritus—a powerful evocation of how sex can become conflicted territory in a long-term relationship” (Pitchfork). The video, directed by Ashley Connor, captures this murky navigation. It features Van Etten and incredible dancers Coco Karol and Miguel Angel Guzmán. 

Van Etten elaborates: “When I was writing this song, I wanted to talk about domesticity and intimacy frustrations under the tensions of working at home and seeking connection while being tied to our devices and still trying to reach each other as lovers, parents, humans… Reminding each other that there is still a primal attraction even in the midst of the mundane and repetition of everyday life.” 

“Sharon said it best,” says Connor. “Intimacy is difficult in the digital age. And speaking of my own personal phone addiction, I can only hope Sharon Van Etten emerges from the void and gently helps me set it down.”
