For the album, Crutchfield has covered Parton’s ‘Light of a Clear Blue Morning’, Springsteen’s ‘Streets of Philadelphia’ and Williams’ ‘Fruits of My Labor’.

Listen to the covers below:

‘Saint Cloud’ was given a four-star review from NME upon its release, which praised it as “a fresh, loved-up outlook that leans on country artists Lucinda Williams and Loretta Lynn”.

“Crutchfield is 30 now, and recently described sobriety as another return: to the person she used to be before she started drinking,” the review read.

“And though that sea change may have resembled a swirling tempest, it’s a pleasure to hear one of America’s finest modern songwriters working in her brand new element.”







Over the weekend, Crutchfield and the Saint Cloud Band hosted a live-streamed show to celebrate the album’s anniversary, performing the record in its entirety. Back in February, they gave a live performance of ‘Lilacs’ for Jimmy Kimmel Live.
