Sharon Van Etten shares “On Your Way Now” from ‘Made in Boise’
Sharon Van Etten recorded a song, "On Your Way Now," for a 2019 PBS documentary, Made in Boise, about four Idaho women's experiences as surrogate mothers. Stereogum points out, the full song hadn't been released until now, and you can hear it below. Mark McAdam wrote it, and it's a lovely, tender track.
"I was moved by the track I was sent because it was lighter than I had expected for a topic so seemingly heavy, but in watching the film, I was inspired by how positive the stories were," Sharon said in a statement around the film's release. "Infertility and surrogates are so rarely talked about and I felt it important to be a part of the story. I hope I added some gentleness and understanding in my delivery."
