''Cerulean Salt'' is the second studio album by American indie musician Waxahatchee, released on March 5, 2013 on Don Giovanni Records. Co-produced by Swearin' members, Kyle Gilbride and Keith Spencer, the album was recorded in primary recording artist Katie Crutchfield's basement. The album was recognized as one of The 100 Best Albums of the Decade So Far, a list published by Pitchfork Media in August 2014. ==Background and recording== Following the release of Waxahatchee's debut album, ''American Weekend'' (2012), Katie Crutchfield toured extensively as a duo, with her friend Katherine: "It was just the two of us, which was also kind of hard staying away from pretty much everybody that I know for that long. It was really hard, then I came home and kind of worked on writing and flushing out some of the new songs and then I went out on tour again with Swearin' for the same amount of time, for two months, so that was crazy." In April 2012, Crutchfield began working on new material with boyfriend and Swearin' band member Keith Spencer: "I went to Alabama with my boyfriend and he kinda' played drums with me, and we sort of fleshed out everything and decided what needed drums, what didn’t need drums, and reworked a lot of the songs I had."〔 Five months later, Crutchfield and Spencer began recording ''Cerulean Salt'', alongside Swearin' members Kyle Gilbride and Allison Crutchfield: "We recorded it here at my house with Kyle (). And Keith and Kyle are both in Swearin,’ which is my sister’s band, and they sort of, we all kind of, still like Allison is a part of my life and her entire band is an everyday part of my life, so it still felt very comfortable. We recorded it here in my basement and Kyle and Allison and Keith and another roommate of ours Sam () all played on it."〔 Crutchfield praised the collaborative recording sessions, noting: "I feel like I have really talented friends and wanted to bounce ideas off them. Like, two heads are better than one, four are better than two, and maybe if we all got together on this they could present ideas to me that I had never thought of. That was the sort of process on this record that, honestly, is completely different than ''American Weekend'' in every possible way."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cerulean Salt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
