“Sean mentioned to me years ago that filming me live, performing, in my element, a single shot, would be intriguing to him,” she said. “I was nervous about the idea then, but as we decided to reissue because I was in love and revisiting the sentiment behind the songs, a live performance of where I am today would truly be the perfect way to reintroduce people to these early songs.

“They still ring true to me and they still come from an honest place. I’m just older now, with more perspective, but that’s the only real difference. It became something more beautiful than I could have imagined”.
