We may be able to expect even more new music from Sharon - who ALSO recently became a mother - later this year, too. She also scored Strange Weather, appeared on the soundtrack for The Man in High Castle, and re-released her 2009 debut, Because I Was in Love. That's not the only musical project she's been involved with, either she lent vocals to music from Lee Ranaldo, Land of Talk, Hercules & Love Affair, Michael Cera, and Lost Horizons. She tried her hand at acting with a role on The OA, and appeared at The Bang Bang Bar on an episode of Twin Peaks: The Return (as well as playing David Lynch's Festival of Disruption).

Sharon Van Etten's last full length album, Are We There, was released in 2014, but she's been anything but idle in the time since. “All of our records are to an extent about mental health,” says MJ, “Largely this is an album about loss but also about maturing, accepting your flaws and the transience of intimacy.” The record reflects the tough three years that preceded and the light at the other end. If first single "Negative Space" is any indication, the new album is more than a microshift, sporting a decidedly more pop direction, embracing dance music and MJ taking the occasional break from wailing to reveal an appealing singing voice. Despite the title, it’s more than a microshift, sonically, from what came before. Following a crowdfunded rebuild of the studio, Hookworms set to work on their new album. Their North American tour was canceled due to visa issues at the 11th hour (a tough blow even for bands whose members don’t all have serious day jobs), and bandleader MJ’s riverside Suburban Home studio was destroyed in a flood. The Leeds, England band wowed with their first two albums of roaring motorik drone rock, not to mention a transcendent, ferociously loud live show, but the band suffered some major setbacks in 2015. We weren’t sure we’d get another Hookworms record.
