Waxahatchee has given us another taste of Tigers Blood, her new album out next month.
The new single, “Bored,” is a surge of upbeat Americana — just watch the excited crowd in the video below, recorded at Devil’s Backbone Tavern in Fischer, Texas. “I can get along — my spine’s a rotted two by four,” Katie Crutchfield sings. “Barely hanging on – my benevolence just hits the floor/I get bored.”
“I feel like my comfort zone when writing songs lies somewhere on the emotional spectrum of sadness and heartache,” Crutchfield said of the track. “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.”
‘”Bored” is the latest single from Tigers Blood, following the excellent “Right Back to It” featuring MJ Lenderman.
