Sadly, Katie Crutchfield, better known as Waxahatchee, had to pull out of her Wichita birthday show at Islington Assembly Hall earlier this week, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t get our fill of punchy rawness, unsettling guitar and powerful lyrics. New single Dirt is one of the most upbeat from recent album Ivy Tripp, but just as gritty as anything else from that record of tangled emotions. Bitter and bruised, she sings ‘I’m a basement brimming with nothing great.’ She lies.
Released October 30th on Wichita.
