Waxahatchee announces new ‘Great Thunder’ EP
The acoustic release is being previewed by a Kevin Morby-featuring video for ‘Chapel Of Pines’.
A year on from her fourth full-length ‘Out In The Storm’, Waxahatchee - aka Katie Crutchfield - has announced the release of a new acoustic EP.
‘Great Thunder’ - which comes out on 7th September via Merge - is the name of a previous project the singer led, and features songs from around the time of her second Waxahatchee LP, 2012’s ‘Cerulean Salt’
“I would say that it is a complete 180 from the last record: super stripped-down, quiet, and with me performing solo, it’s a throwback to how I started,” Katie says of the release. “Overall, the EP is a warm, kind of vibey recording.”
The EP is being previewed by delicate new track ‘Chapel Of Pines’, which comes complete with a beautiful, romantic Kevin Morby-featuring video.
