Van Etten, who released her last solo studio album ‘Remind Me Tomorrow’ in 2019, has this year covered Nine Inch Nails’ ‘Hurt’, shared a single titled ‘Let Go’ and teamed up with Local Natives for their track ‘Lemon’.

‘Let Go’ was recorded for the Arthur Jones documentary Feels Good Man which focuses on Matt Furie, the creator of the Pepe The Frog meme.

“After watching the documentary, I just followed the feeling of coming to terms with something and tried to evoke peace through my melody and words,” Van Etten said in a statement about the song.

“The song and film’s producer, Giorgio, was a great collaborator and communicator and I was given a lot of freedom. That says a lot about the film and the people who made it.”

Back in September, Van Etten revealed that she had been working on new music with Linda Perry.
