Katie Crutchfield (Waxahatchee) and Mish Way (White Lung) Trade Songs


"Wrong Star" / "Coast to Coast"

Perfect Pussy are playing Asbury Lanes tonight with Potty Mouth. That got me thinking about how, back in December, Perfect Pussy teamed up with Ceremony, Sleepies, and White Lung for a show at NYU that I had every intention of attending but failed to make. So somewhere in the back of my brain, Vancouver's White Lung were floating around.

Waxahatchee are coming to Asbury Lanes in November, and I'm extremely excited for that one. My love of Waxahatchee is well-documented here. So that was another thing that was kind of just sitting there in the back of my mind.

Then I noticed that White Lung's Mish Way and Waxahatchee's Katie Crutchfield did this little acoustic session thing that Noisey posted last week where they traded off performing each other's songs: White Lung's "Wrong Star" and Waxahatchee's "Coast to Coast."

Mish Way's vocals remind me a little bit of Courtney Love here, and I think that one of the things I love about Waxahatchee songs is that I can learn them on the guitar by just watching Katie play.

I don't know. It just struck me as a kind of weird and mystical occurrence. Not really, I guess. I just like this. Here are the two videos.

Have a great final weekend of summer. CoolMom's probably gonna be out with me tonight, so this is a really good night to come and say hi. She's awesome.
