We are incredibly excited to welcome Waxahatchee to Wichita and announce the release of Cerulean Salt on 1st July. Hear the sublimely disheveled Brother Bryan here.
2013 has already been a whirlwind of a year for the Alabama-born Katie Crutchfield, after the release of her second album under the moniker Waxahatchee last month in the US (on venerable punk label Don Giovanni) was met with immediate critical acclaim, earning ‘Best New Music’ and an 8.4 album score from Pitchfork as well as the ‘SPIN Essentials’ tag and continued support from NPR, among many others. This was followed by a very enthusiastically received string of shows at SXSW where she was singled out as one of the festival’s highlights by both local and international press, resulting in Wichita picking up the record for a worldwide release (excluding North America) this summer.
Waxahatchee will be coming to Europe in June – joining Tegan and Sara on tour and playing a headline show at London’s Shacklewell Arms. Details below.
