Real good news comes today in the announcement that Sharon Van Etten will release her new album, Epic, on October 5th (Ba Da Bing!). Sharon completely wowed us at the Cactus Club early this year and left us with this gorgeous song/video for “A Joke Or A Lie.”

Sharon’s been a busy gal these days. I saw her a few weeks back on stage with The Antlers opening for The National at Radio City Music Hall. Additionally, she contributes “I Couldn’t Save You” to the soundtrack for the forthcoming Rick Alverson DVD, The Builder, due later this month on Jagjaguwar. Watch the trailer for the film here.
