Jersey-born singer-songwriter Sharon Van Etten has established her place in the indie rock scene. With two albums already under her belt, Van Etten continues to wow fans through her powerfully emotional songs. She recently released her third album Tramp on the Jagjaguwar label.
Debuting at number 75 on the Billboard 200, Tramp is solid proof that Sharon Van Etten has honed and mastered her skills as a songwriter. She recently released the new video for her song “Magic Chords” from the album.
Before she embarks on her Australian tour, Van Etten will be playing quite a few more shows across the US. She’ll be playing at the 9:30 Club this Thursday, October 25th, and we’re giving away a pair of tickets!
Van Etten’s set will include songs from all three of her albums. In addition, fellow indie rocker Damien Jurado will be featured as the supporting act.
Besides being the title of Van Etten’s most recent album, tramp has two meanings: a hobo or a derelict. To enter to win a pair of tickets to this Thursday’s show at the 9:30 Club, leave a comment naming your favorite song about either definition of the word “tramp.”
I think I’ll go with “Roxanne” by The Police.
The winner will be chosen at noon this Wednesday, October 24th. Tickets are still available.
