Waxahatchee: Saint Cloud (Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP – Turntable Lab Exclusive

If I’m a broken record, write it in the dust, babe! One of 2020s finest albums; Katie Crutchfields well-traveled collection of recovery tunes. Throughout the last year, Ive found myself walking down E. 7th Street or taking the M Train home, recalling their mention in lines on Saint Cloud. Its funny, because the album is named after her fathers hometown in Florida, and the tone throughout the record is distinctly southern, but this to me is in part a New York record. The duality is constant throughout, mixing snapshots of her youth in Alabamaand her 20s in NYC and Philly, with a brief, yet sobering moment in Barcelona. From the heated yearning of Lilac, the Dolly Parton-influenced badassery of Hell, to the lucidity of Oxbow, Waxahatchee takes you through a true Americana journey to claim independence. 11 tracks on TTL exclusive split-colored vinyl (modeledafter the pickup on the cover!), recommended.
