Sharon van Etten recently visited with All Songs Considered and recorded one of their charming Tiny Desk Concerts, which take place, as you can imagine, in the tiny space at host Bob Boilen’s desk. You can view the footage here and download the entire event here (just click the link, download will begin automatically).
But that’s not all the wee Brooklynite has been up to, this week she released a special 7″ featuring two exclusive songs, which is already sold out but available digitally, and next month she kicks off a tour that will take her to Japan, around the Eastern seaboard of the US and then to a series of dates in Europe with The National.
