Waxahatchee: Tigers Blood [Anti-]
Katie Crutchfield expands upward and outward on Tigers Blood, her latest as Waxahatchee, refining and rewilding her country and rock roots. Crutchfield assembled an indie dream team—including MJ Lenderman, Spencer Tweedy, and Megafaun’s Phil and Brad Cook—for the Saint Cloud follow-up, which she made after getting sober. “I’m really trying to squash the idea that you have to be completely chaotic and tortured to make interesting art,” she told Andy Cush in Pitchfork’s recent Cover Story.
