Waxahatchee is back with “Bored,” the latest single from her forthcoming album, Tigers Blood.
Built around an acoustic guitar-led arrangement, “Bored” shows off the melodic sensibilities of Waxahatchee’s Katie Crutchfield, with subtle verses blossoming into soaring choruses. Lyrically, she flows through scenes and observations, culminating with the wonderfully-resonant, nearly cathartic refrain: “I can get along, my spine’s a rotted two by four/ barely hanging on, my benevolence just hits the floor/ I get bored.”
The second song to arrive from Tigers Blood — following last month’s “Right Back to It,” named Song of the Week — the new single, “Bored,” arrives with a music video depicting Crutchfield performing live at Devil’s Backbone Tavern in Fischer, Texas. Watch the video below.
First announced earlier this year, Tigers Blood is due in full on March 22nd via ANTI-. Pre-orders for the album are ongoing.
Up next, Waxahatchee will hit the road for a sprawling 2024, which will include newly announced European dates, as well as two North American legs kicking off this April. Check out the full list of her upcoming dates below, and grab tickets for her US dates here, and her European dates here.
