Waxahatchee 'Cerulean Salt' LP Blue Transparent (Cerulean Blue) Vinyl
On her second full-length record as Waxahatchee, former P.S. Eliot singer Katie Crutchfield's compelling hyper-personal poetry is continuously crushing. Cerulean Salt follows last January's American Weekend -- a collection of minimal acoustic-guitar pop written and recorded in a week at her family's Birmingham home.
Crutchfield's songs continue to be marked by her sharp, hooky songwriting; her striking voice and lyrics that simultaneously seem hyper-personal yet relentlessly relatable, teetering between endearingly nostaglic and depressingly dark. But whereas before the thematic focus of her songcraft was on break ups and passive-aggressive crushing, this record reflects on her family and Alabama upbringing. And whereas American Weekend was mostly just Crutchfield and her guitar, Cerulean Salt is occasionally amped up, with a full band and higher-fi production.
The album is pressed on CERULEAN BLUE VINYL.
