photo: Waxahatchee at Webster Hall in October (more by PSquared)
Waxahatchee has made a video for “La Loose” off this year’s great Ivy Tripp (which landed on SPIN and Rough Trade‘s year-end lists). Director Naomi Yang says:
“La Loose” is a song of love and longing, though dark at its edges with feelings of ambivalence. I wanted the video to be a visual equivalent to the song lyric, ‘a charming picture of hysteria in love’–a spinning emotional kaleidoscope of desire and rejection, adoration and anger, hope and despair. For this reason I set the video in mirror-twin locations: an abandoned, haunted amusement park and a thriving farm out of a beautiful dream.
You can watch it below.
Waxahatchee is on tour now, and playing the stacked Ground Control Touring 15th anniversary show at NYC’s Webster Hall tonight (12/2). It’s sold out, but there’s still time to win tickets.
She’s also on some of Sleater-Kinney‘s dates, including their Terminal 5 (12/3) show (tickets). All dates are listed below.
