Waxahatchee returned to NPR’s ‘Tiny Desk Concert’ to perform a selection of songs from this year’s Tigers Blood and 2020’s Saint Cloud. After playing her recent standalone single ‘Much Ado About Nothing’, Katie Crutchfield and her band ran through the Tigers Blood tracks ‘Right Back to It’, ‘Crowbar’, and the album’s title song. She closed out her set with with a rendition of Sanit Cloud‘s ‘Fire’. Watch it go down below.
Waxahatchee previously stopped by the NPR office in 2013 in support of her second album Cerulean Salt. She recalled the experience in the middle of her set, saying, “I sort of rolled out of the tour van, I didn’t realize I was going to be, like, in the NPR building … sort of didn’t really know what I was doing at all. My amp broke in the middle [of the set].” She added, “I’m really happy that that exists, and I’m really happy to be back to show you this new version of the band.”
Tigers Blood earned Waxahatchee her first Grammy nomination for Best Americana Album. Check out where the album landed on our 50 Best Albums of 2024 list.
