My submission for Waxahatchee is not going to do justice to the story I discovered about her, written by Katie Crutchfield herself, on Spotify. Katie mentions she skipped her small town in Alabama about ten years ago and has been a songwriter all along the way. She mentions she's sober, which I can't help but think that this journey of hers is either after hitting rock bottom, or is the success of a sober discipline since that rock bottom. Did she discover an amazing talent as a result of her sobriety, or was her poetic ability and beautiful voice there before she found god? Which, by the way, I love that more folks are coming out as sober. You never know when someone in an addiction may discover this information and decide to make a change in his/her life for the better. An artist like Katie could inspire one to become curious about something other than the bottle, spliff, needle, abusive relationship, etc... Katie delivers a good dose of hopium in her background story and in her songs. For that, I give Tigers Blood 10/10 Pukes.
Happy Friday. Work sucks, I want to go home. Even though I'm already home, work occupies my mind!
