There are scenes with an actress who might be a younger Van Etten, and a sequence filmed in Van Etten\u2019s native Clinton, New Jersey. It\u2019s a passionate song with a light touch \u2014 lots of big feelings, none of them heavy-handed \u2014 and the same is true of this video.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSharon wanted to use this video to create a love letter to New York, her home for the last 15 years,\u201d director Maureen Towey said in a press statement. \u201cShe showed us around all her old haunts \u2014 the places that made her the musician that she is today. Some of these spots are still around, some are just empty lots now. We took an eye toward the city that was both tender and tough, trying to find the ways that a beautiful city can fall apart while still nurturing the hopes of a young artist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Remind Me Tomorrow<\/em> is Van Etten\u2019s first album since 2014\u2019s excellent <em>Are We There<\/em>.
