Sharon Van Etten [Second Show]

Tue 06 Dec 2022  |  6:00pm — 10:00pm  |  Front Garden (Standing)

By popular demand, Mistletone and Fremantle Arts Centre present Sharon Van Etten, one of the most formidable songwriters and performers of our time, for a second show with her full band. Sharon Van Etten has always been a wholehearted artist, the kind of songwriter who helps people make sense of the world around them. Her newest work concerns itself with how we feel, mourn, and reclaim our agency when we think the world – or at least, our world – might be falling apart. As always, we are at the mercy of Van Etten’s voice: the way it loops and arcs, the startling and emotive warmth of it.
