Waxahatchee was up for a Grammy on Sunday night, but she didn't win, since Sierra Ferrell swept the Americana categories. Doesn't matter! Real heads know that Tigers Blood was one of last year's best albums, and Katie Crutchfield and her band are about to be on some big tours. In the months ahead, they'll hit the road for a very busy few months, including dates Wilco and with Willie Nelson's Outlaw Fest tour. She's also got a brand-new single.
Back in October, months after the release of Tigers Blood, Waxahatchee shared "Much Ado About Nothing," another great one-off track from the album sessions. Today, she's got another one. The new song "Mud" is a lively two-minute country-rocker that Katie Crutchfield recorded with her excellent Tigers Blood ensemble: MJ Lenderman on electric guitar and backup vocals, Spencer Tweedy on drums and backup vocals, Brad Cook on bass, Phil Cook on banjo and piano. Katie Crutchfield's voice sounds amazing on this one. Below, check out "Mud" and Waxahatchee's many upcoming tour dates.
