Released in 2012 on Don Giovanni Records, American Weekend is the debut studio album from indie project Waxahatchee, the musical vehicle of singer-songwriter Katie Crutchfield. Written and recorded in a single week at her family's Alabama home, the album is a collection of minimal acoustic-guitar pop that explores themes of relationships and transience with striking intimacy. The standout track "Be Good" was named NPR's Song of the Day and landed on their list of the 50 best songs of 2012, helping cement the album as one of the most talked-about debuts of that year.
American Weekend captures a rare, unguarded moment in an artist's early career — raw, personal, and deeply felt. This pressing on Don Giovanni Records includes a printed insert, adding a thoughtful finishing touch to an album that has resonated with fans of alternative and indie music since its release.
