LENDERMAN PUT ON HIS NICEST FLANNEL FOR THIS OCCASION

Waxahatchee, MJ Lenderman, Spencer Tweedy and a couple of Twin Peaks dudes? This a super group fr.

[@henryschuellerman1550]

for real!! So stacked

[@SERAPHIMA_777]

lmao

[@AcousticRflx]

Wow.

[@thesidekick]

[@Parkerh12345]

Saw clay and Colin and almost passed out

[@sNorENaDo777]

This song is one of those that you cannot ever forget. Absolutely brilliant

[@primatein]

I'm so happy that MJ Lenderman is blowing up the way he is. He's amazing man; wonderful human being and folk artist. I first heard his song, "Someone Get the Grill Out of the Rain" and have been hooked ever since.

[@lukewarmaus]

I saw him a couple of months back at someone else's show. Had no idea who he was but ended up enjoying him more than the band i went to see. Hope he has a massive future coz he deserves it!

[@kevinkeels6845]

I’m looking up his song next! Thanks.

[@cpanczak]

His live album is on heavy repeat

[@jlbficciones]

I first heard this song at a show Lyons, Colorado…there was late summer golden hour sun, a mesa on one side of the creek and a meadow on the other side where the festival was. My six year old son and I were on a stroll through the food area to plan out dinner and he heard this song. He grabbed my hand and ran back to where he could see Waxahatchee playing, along with Jess Williamson. He stood there transfixed until he grabbed my hand again and ran back to my spouse. She picked him up and spun him around in that golden sun. My nine year old daughter leapt into my arms ready to dance. This is a core memory for me that shined up again when I heard this on the good ol KZbinr. I am so happy for Waxahatchee getting a gig on Colbert. Thanks for this memory.

[@jamesfoster4106]

Keep writing. You painted a perfect picture.

[@tonydisarufino4860]

MJ Lenderman hive rise up

[@melomane]

Lendermsn’s harmony on this is the best piece of musical creation I’ve heard in the last five years. Absolute perfection. Reminds me of the best parts of Son Volt or the Jayhawks.

[@alwaysbeclosing66]

This belongs in the alt-country chain started by those folks

[@David-dv2lb]

he's kinda doing that thing where it feels somewhere between a melody and this kind of ghostly background sound (impossible to describe, but so beautiful)

[@Grant_Ferstat]

Harmony is very much like Jim Boquist/Jay Farrar

[@melsrecords-bq3di]

Funny, it was bugging me that I couldn’t place his voice. It hit me. Few weeks ago, he’s close to farrar, though he doesn’t have that deep baritone. Style-wise though, he’s farrar all the way.

[@SERAPHIMA_777]

So much talent, her new record is amazing.

[@BillySBC]

So happy to see Katie doing so well and getting the recognition she deserves! Love this girl!

[@0HARE]

Very nice. I like her voice and her songs. Thanks for showcasing this cool band.

[@YarrBr0]

You're welcome, anytime

[@Aguirrethewrathofgod]

Not really a band. Waxahachee is a music project by singer Katie Crutchfield

[@kevinkeels6845]

Coming from a “rock guy”, this has taken the pole position in the race to be my favorite song of the year. “Like a song with no end…” Right, cuz I can’t stop playing it!

[@frbrable]

This harmony reminds me of Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings. Sounds great!

[@ramindadmanesh3863]

That's exactly what I thought the first time I heard this

[@ticthak]

Her timbre reminds of Edie Brickell, too.

[@adamboozer9204]

Didn’t think about until you mentioned it, but I hear all that. Really good tune.

[@Brjk27766]

I felt it has that same effect that Gillian Welch/Dave Rawlings has for me.

[@CuriousBean]

Recommend a song?

[@KevinJohnson-lv1do]

Just saw them last night in Denver @ Mission Ballroom. It was packed and they played their entire album and then some. The last U.S. show of this tour and it was absolutely energized. I heard them for the first time on Colbert and lucked into catching them on my last night in Denver for a meeting. Truly a stroke of luck. Incredible group.

[@jamesfoster4106]

Man they sound good together.

[@DocBism]

I just love these guys. Lyrics, melodies, singing.... St Cloud is one of my top ten albums.

[@1coopjsn]

Beautiful! That bassist is laying down a sturdy beat. I love it.

[@pete5534]

The lap & pedal steel add a sweet element to an otherwise gorgeous track. Shout out to the director and switcher who stitched the cameras together - well done!

[@jeffanderson8384]

This song is amazing... it's been on heavy rotation on my play list since it came out.

[@Mother_Aura]

AHH THATS MY COUSIN. I LOVE YOU JAKE

[@nerolilaine9973]

I love their voices together

[@EricRoss57]

What a collection of talent! Great vocal and harmony, nice use of the pedal steel throughout and nice sound in general!

[@shayned4925]

I love Katie, her songwriting and her voice! This record is as beautiful as St Cloud. Can’t wait to see her again in May

[@dtcousineau]

Love this new album. Awesome band!

[@llamaclipz]

Amazing. They are perfect together

[@7thstranger]

Will sound old saying this, but this is a throwback to the old, real Country Music. Nothing like what you hear on popular stations nowadays. Could easily be hearing this on a 70s AM station. Love it!

[@LRHMorgan]

Such a great performance - the new album is fantastic 🎉

[@ericthompson3982]

Holy crap, this is great.

[@greatlakesdweller59]

Bravo. smooth as silk. Love this song.

This is the song of 2024 so far. Just beautiful.

[@shinybeast8946]

Really? You have heard everything have you?

[@stevecarll]

@@shinybeast8946 No, which is why I used the conditional phrase "so far". If you're going to be snarky, you might want to work on your reading comprehension, genius.

[@steveb9667]

It's my absolute favorite

[@shinybeast8946]

So at the end of the year, you will have listened to everything? I can"t wait to hear your list. LOL@@stevecarll

[@stevecarll]

@@shinybeast8946 No, again, I think most people get that it’s a practical impossibility to listen to everything, so when someone refers to or makes a list of “songs of the year”, it’s understood to be limited to the ones they personally have heard. Now, I like this song and I left a nice, positive comment here about it. I’m baffled as to why anyone would take the time to shit on it, but here you are. Who hurt you?

[@phEscuta]

[@bhughes8301]

[@musekidd]

Five years ago I lost my best friend, my brother... this song sings to him and our time together. Given a chance... I'd get right back to it.

mj is not playing that damn guitar

[@gregorycrotty2926]

right?? not even remotely the same chords as katie

[@mrpurple33]

Could've used a different tone and more volume on that solo though...

[@appleget]

For sure needed more volume on the solo

[@alexstewart839]

It's a mix issue, not a tone issue. The pedal steel and two acoustic guitars were eating up all of the good frequencies and whoever mixed this for broadcast didn't back them off during the solo. There was nowhere for the electric guitar to poke through without going super shrill. Whatever tone he had on stage would have worked fine for the solo if the engineer(s) wanted to emphasize the solo.

[@mrpurple33]

@KevinL-fo6xe I know exactly what I'm talking about thank you very much. My comment is simply a compliment to the excellent solo on the recorded version.

[@appleget]

@@alexstewart839 Interesting! Thanks for the information.

[@alexstewart839]

@@appleget Sure thing. Mixing live music for broadcast can be super complicated because they're trying to make it sound similar across a wide variety of devices, don't necessarily have a ton of time to soundcheck, and the priorities of the engineer(s) may not match those of the performer(s).

Do they even know that KRAFTWERK already happened 45 years ago?

Stephen Colbert is a legend but the music on his show in usually sh*t

[@0228christian]

Why is the "indie" music scene suddenly overflowing with generic sounding country music? Everyone and their mom is doing it, and doing it poorly. There's a lot of very talented musicians on that stage, and they chose to play what sounds like a Tracy Chapman b-side from the late 90's? I guess I'm just getting old and don't get it.

[@JV-ws9yd]

last sentence nailed it

[@GardenTenderNY]

Yep, you really drove your point home with that last sentence. 🔨

[@ibowers819]

Sounds like you're getting old and don't get it but I could be wrong.

[@0228christian]

I guess every generation needs their own version of incredibly forgettable coffee shop americana.

[@0228christian]

@KevinL-fo6xe I didn’t realize we knew each other personally. Small world! You’ve got no idea what I like, and I have no desire to dictate what types of music anyone makes. I happen to think the first few Waxahatchee records were pretty great, and I like a ton of country/americana both old and new, popular and indie. If you haven’t recognized yet that everyone is jumping on this country trend right now (shit even Beyoncé is getting in on it) I don’t know what to tell you. When a trend like this emerges most people are going to do it poorly. It’s my opinion that MJ Lenderman and Katie do it poorly.
