Waxahatchee‘s highly anticipated new album Tigers Blood is out next month, and she’s given us a second early taste with “Bored,” a high-spirited track with plenty of country flair, accompanied by a video directed by Corbett Jones and Nick Simonite and shot at Devil’s Backbone Tavern in Fischer, TX. Watch it below.
“I feel like my comfort zone when writing songs lies somewhere on the emotional spectrum of sadness and heartache,” Katie Crutchfield says. “Writing from a place of happiness scares me. Too earnest. Anger scares me even more. I wrote ‘Bored’ about one of those situations where anger was called for and was the only authentic place from which to write about what I was experiencing. It was a challenge for me and ‘Bored’ is the end result.”
Having announced North American tour dates supporting Tigers Blood, including NYC-area shows at Brooklyn Paramount on April 27 (with Good Morning), Beacon Theatre on August 28, and Asbury Park, NJ’s Stone Pony Summer Stage on September 1 (with Snail Mail and Tim Heidecker), Waxahatchee has added new European shows in July and August to the run.
