SHARON VAN ETTEN & THE ATTACHMENT THEORY live show at Rock en Seine
Fascinated by the workings of the human mind – so much so that she studied psychology – Sharon Van Etten returns with a new band, The Attachment Theory, named after a concept exploring emotional bonds between people. Fans who have followed the American artist’s solo journey so far will find familiar territory with these magnetic new tracks, where the singer and guitarist clearly revels in the joy of collective composition, blending elements of new wave and post-punk. Since her debut album in 2009, this leading figure of US indie rock has shown her talent as much for collaboration (with the likes of Josh Homme and Angel Olsen) as for captivating her audiences solo, radiating dark beauty as she delves into the depths of her psyche.
