Remind Me Tomorrow

Description

The great return of one of the greatest American songwriters! The writing took place during Sharon’s pregnancy, between her classes at psychology school and auditions for the series The OA. Between the filming hours of the series, the Remind Me Tomorrow project was born. Away from the screen, she had the opportunity to write her first soundtrack for Katherine Dieckmann’s film Strange Weather as well as the track that closes Tig Notaro’s show, Tig. The demos for Remind Me Tomorrow passed through the hands of producer John Congleton, who handled the arrangements. Using Van Etten’s references - Suicide, Portishead and Nick Cave’s Skeleton Tree - the producer reworked the Remind Me Tomorrow demo, helping to renew Van Etten’s musical signature, making the album more energetic than minimal and meditative. The songs still resonate just as strongly, the themes remain an honest and subtle approach to love and nostalgia, but Congleton has introduced new distinctive touches to Van Etten’s sound.
