More about Waxahatchee's upcoming album Tigers Blood
Crutchfield wrote most of the songs on Tigers Blood while on tour near the end of 2022. She reunited with producer Brad Cook, who also produced the previous Waxahatchee album, Saint Cloud, in 2020.
The 12-song tracklist of Tigers Blood has also been released and is available for pre-order via the official Waxahatchee website as well as online music stores like Bandcamp and Rough Trade.
Tigers Blood tracklist:
- 3 Sisters
- Evil Spawn
- Ice Cold
- Right Back to It
- Burns Out at Midnight
- Bored
- Lone Star Lake
- Crimes of the Heart
- Crowbar
- 365
- The Wolves
- Tigers Blood
The lead single Right Back To It, featuring MJ Lenderman, was also released alongside a press release of the forthcoming Waxahatchee album and tour. Crutchfield wrote it backstage at Wolf Trap when she was on tour opening for Jason Isbell and Sheryl Crow. Crutchfield said:
““I’m really interested in writing love songs that are gritty and unromantic. I wanted to make a song about the ebb and flow of a longtime love story. I thought it might feel untraditional but a little more in alignment with my experience to write about feeling insecure or foiled in some way internally, but always finding your way back to a newness or an intimacy with the same person.”
Waxahatchee began in 2010 and is the brainchild of Katie Crutchfield. She created the project shortly after her pop-punk band, P.S. Eliot, which she formed with her twin sister Allison, disbanded. The name comes from Waxahatchee Creek in Alabama, which is where Katie grew up.
The next few months will be exciting for fans of Waxahatchee. Not only will they get a full-length project of brand-new material after 4 years, but they will also have the opportunity to see the singer perform live on her extensive tour across the United States.
