Waxahatchee Announces New Album Saint Cloud, Shares Resolute Lead Single 'Fire'

Katie Crutchfield, the brain behind indie folk-pop act Waxahatchee, shared Wednesday news of her forthcoming album.is set for release on March 27 via Merge Records, her fifth solo album as her moniker Waxahatchee. Crutchfield says she wrote the album briefly after her decision for sobriety. The album is largely inspired by travel, with inspiration coming everywhere from Barcelona to Tennessee.

For the album, Crutchfield enlisted the assistance of producer Brad Cook , as well as Bobby Colombo and Bill Lennox of Bonny Doon, Nick Kinsey , and Josh Kaufman to record as her backing band., titled “Fire.” Of the track, Crutchfield said: The idea and melody for ‘Fire’ was dreamt up while driving over the Mississippi River from Memphis into West Memphis, AR, sun reflecting off the water which literally made West Memphis glow. The song’s written by me, to myself. It’s about the internal dialogue of shame surrounding mistakes you’ve made in the past and how we spiral and beat ourselves up when we slip. It’s meant to be a bit of a personal pep talk.

The accompanying video for “Fire” is shot in an odd, wide aspect ratio, self-directed by Crutchfield alongside Andreina Byrne. She says the song was written during a drive over the Mississippi into West Memphis, and it shows here plainly: The video takes place mostly on the Memphis & Arkansas Bridge, with images of Crutchfield taping up signage as well as throwing them into an open flame.
