Waxahatchee’s Katie Crutchfield reflects on looking for the perfect lines of poetry for her album, Tigers Blood, and why she doesn’t believe in the “tortured artist” trope. Plus, in the second hour of World Cafe, there aren’t a lot of opportunities in life to just scream, and that’s what Mannequin Pussy frontperson Missy Dabice was looking for when she started the band over a decade ago. There’s still screaming on the band’s latest album, I Got Heaven, but Missy will talk about how her songwriting has evolved, in one of World Cafe’s best interviews of 2024.
