Waxahatchee is the latest project of Katie Crutchfield, formerly of P.S. Eliot and Bad Banana. While her prior bands' output dealt in the cutoff-shorts type of DIY punk that's the stock-in-trade of basements in small cities the world over, American Weekend, by contrast, consists mostly of Crutchfield and an acoustic guitar. The arrangements are sparse, and Crutchfield's complete-sentence lyrics refer to eroded and half-formed relationships, getting personal and detail-oriented in a way that suggests she's not making any of it up.
