Waxahatchee American Weekend

Originally released in 2012, American Weekend introduced the world to Katie Crutchfield's singular songwriting under the name Waxahatchee, announcing the arrival of one of indie music's most compelling new voices.

Recorded largely alone during a snowstorm, the album is a beautifully raw collection of lo-fi folk songs built around acoustic guitar, intimate vocals and deeply personal lyricism. With remarkable honesty and emotional vulnerability, Crutchfield explores identity, heartbreak, uncertainty and self-discovery, creating a debut that has since become a modern indie classic.

Often compared to the intimate storytelling of Bruce Springsteen's Nebraska and the lo-fi songwriting of artists such as Lou Barlow and The Softies, American Weekend balances stripped-back arrangements with unforgettable melodies. Fan favourites including Catfish, Grass Stain, American Weekend, Be Good and Noccalula showcase the heartfelt songwriting that would define Waxahatchee's acclaimed career.

This special edition is pressed on beautiful Red & White Swirl Vinyl, celebrating the album that launched one of indie folk's most respected and beloved artists.
