Tigers Blood

Description

Waxahatchee returns with a powerful and assured pen on her new album Tigers BloodKatie Crutchfield is one of the most active singer-songwriters of the moment. She was born in Alabama, grew up near Waxahatchee Creek. She left town and launched her solo career under the name Waxahatchee. That was over ten years ago. Crutchfield says she never imagined the road would lead her here, but after six critically acclaimed albums, she has never been more confident as an artist. If her music has evolved, moving from lo-fi folk to lush, alt-tinged country, her voice has always remained the same. Honest and intimate, poetic with Southern inflections. A bit like Carson McCullers' Mick Kelly, determined in her desires and convictions, ready to tell anyone who will listen. After years of sobriety and stability in Kansas City, Crutchfield has arrived at her most powerful writing to date. On her new album, Tigers Blood, she emerges as a powerhouse, an ethnographer of the human condition who has always devoted herself to revisiting her victories and defeats. But today, she arrives at revelations and she does not hold them back.
