Hi.

Welcome to Rob Hakimian’s website, collecting together the best of his writing from over the years.

In Conversation: Waxahatchee

In Conversation: Waxahatchee

“The day that I had the hard conversations with my manager and booking agent where they were like, ‘yeah, this is not gonna happen’, that day was really upsetting. I almost took it a little personally, and was a little bit in denial. And then 24 hours later it was super clear to me this is just gonna affect every single person every single part of life. It just is what it is. It's bigger than everybody. So since then I think I've had a good attitude about it. I felt happy to be of service right now; people need music more than ever.”

I spoke to the completely delightful Katie Crutchfield aka Waxahatchee about the reception to her new album Saint Cloud, the frustration of not touring, and how she and partner Kevin Morby are staying sane with Live Streams in quarantine. Read the Q&A over here on Clash.
