Katie Crutchfield is coming back with her first Waxahatchee studio album since 2020. The new album, Tigers Blood, is out March 22 via Anti-. Find the music video for the lead single, “Right Back to It,” as well as Waxahatchee’s newly announced 2024 tour dates, below.
Crutchfield made Tigers Blood with Wednesday’s MJ Lenderman, Spencer Tweedy, and Megafaun’s Phil and Brad Cook. She wrote the album’s songs while on tour in 2022, and MJ Lenderman was her opener for a portion of those dates. She ultimately recorded the album with Brad Cook at Texas’ Sonic Ranch.
Regarding the new single, 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.”
Crutchfield collaborated with producer Brad Cook on her previous solo studio album, 2020’s Saint Cloud. She worked again with Brad Cook, as well as Phil Cook and Spencer Tweedy, on the 2022 Plains album I Walked With You a Ways.
