Snocaps — the new band featuring sisters Katie and Allison Crutchfield, as well as MJ Lenderman and Brad Cook — have announced their first (and maybe only) tour.
The quartet has scheduled six shows for December, playing two nights in just three locations: Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York City. Each concert will feature a different opener, with artists like Ryan Davis and the Roadhouse Band, Cloakroom, Graham Hunt, and Slippers set to join. Full dates and openers are below.
Tickets for all shows will go on sale Nov. 7 at 10 a.m. local time, with an artist pre-sale set to begin Nov. 5 at 10 a.m. local time. Full info is available on the Snocaps website.
Snocaps announced themselves, and released their self-titled debut album, last Friday, Oct. 31. The 13-track album marks the first time Katie (better known as Waxahatchee) and Allison (who fronted indie favorites Swearin’) have made music together since P.S. Eliot, the punk band they formed as teenagers and played with between 2007 to 2011 (with a brief reunion in 2016).

The Crutchfields wrote all the songs on Snocaps, while Lenderman and Cook were fitting collaborators. Allison is Lenderman’s A&R rep and helped sign him to Anti- (also Waxahatchee’s label) ahead of the release of his breakthrough album, Manning Fireworks. Lenderman also contributed guitar and vocals to Waxahatchee’s most recent LP, Tigers Blood, which Cook produced along with its predecessor, Saint Cloud.
Teasing the tour in a post on her Substack, Katie wrote that the band’s setlist would not only include Snocaps songs, but tracks from P.S. Eliot, Swearin’, and Allison’s 2017 solo LP Tourist In This Town. Katie even said she planned to dust off some tunes from the first four Waxahatchee albums, material she’s tended to avoid on recent tours.
“The old is feeling new, the songs I wrote when I was 19 that once cringed me out way too much to revisit are sounding fresh and sweet and good again,” she wrote, adding: “No, we will not play anything from the last 5 years aside from the entire Snocaps album. I say that to excite you, to answer some questions you may have as you decide whether or not to buy a ticket. I like to be a little mysterious in how I present my offerings to you. This feels like a fun thing to let you all the way in on.”
Snocaps don’t have any additional concerts planned beyond the December run, and it’s unclear if they plan to do more. “I can’t say this will be all we’ll do but it is genuinely all that we have planned right now,” Katie wrote. “This project, in all its enmeshment and entanglement with family and friendship and frequent collaboration admittedly feels ripe for recurrence. We’ll see! For now, if this show sounds up your street then get a ticket while the gettin’ is good.”
