From Are We There (2014). Are We There is the fourth studio album by the American singer-songwriter Sharon Van Etten, released on 27 May 2014 by Jagjaguwar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Player Jaguar through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the nearest rig we use for Sharon Van Etten's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup.
