Twin sisters Katie Crutchfield of Waxahatchee and Allison Crutchfield of Swearin' have reunited under the moniker Snocaps, releasing a surprise album that marks their first new music together since 2011. The self-titled album, out now, features 13 tracks, with contributions from frequent collaborators MJ Lenderman and Brad Cook.
A longtime creative partnership has brought the four musicians together for this project. Lenderman provided backing vocals to tracks on Waxahatchee's 2024 album Tigers Blood, while Cook has been her go-to producer since Saint Cloud in 2020. The duo brings their musical expertise to Snocaps, playing various instruments across the record and lending a hand with engineering and production.
The reunion comes as no surprise, given that Katie and Allison have been collaborating in some capacity for over two decades. As Katie noted, "Allison and I have been, in some way, shape or form, doing this together for over 20 years." With Snocaps, the sisters are once again united behind the mic, delivering a cohesive and innovative sound that showcases their signature blend of punk spirit and melodic depth.
Fans can catch Snocaps live at select shows later this year. With no further dates currently announced, fans will have to wait with bated breath for the opportunity to witness the reunion firsthand. For now, the album stands as a testament to the enduring creative chemistry between these two talented musicians.

. I mean, 20+ years of collab? That's like, super rare in this music scene... but at the same time, I don't know if it was just waiting to happen and they needed some motivation to actually put it out now 
. It's cool that MJ and Brad are involved, 'cause they're pros and all that jazz 
. But still, 13 tracks is a lot! Are we gonna have to listen to the same song like 5 times in a row 
? And I'm curious about these live shows... will it be just Katie and Allison up on stage or are MJ and Brad gonna join in too? 
and I'm DYING over this surprise album!!! Katie & Allison's harmonies are always on point but with MJ Lenderman & Brad Cook on board, they're totes taking it to the next level! Their sound is like a perfect blend of punk rock & melodic goodness 
- it's literally making me wanna jump up & down 
! I'm so hyped for their live shows this year 
... I'm def gonna be there with my crew 
. Snocaps reunion = pure MAGIC 
The sisters' 20-year collaboration history just makes me wonder what kind of crazy, beautiful music they came up with back in the day... did they ever have to Google "how to be cool" together? 
anyway, can't wait to see them live this year, gotta hear those harmonies again 
maybe i'm just overhyped for their reunion or something, tbh 
, but can we please just move on from 2011 already? It's like, how many times can we revisit their old music before it gets stale?
. The album actually sounds pretty amazing, all I know is that the 13 tracks seem kinda random 
Okay, maybe this reunion thing isn't so bad after all...
! The fact that these two have been collaborating for over 20 years just proves that some creative bonds can last a lifetime 
. Their self-titled album sounds incredible, I mean who wouldn't want to hear more of their signature blend of punk and melodic depth? 
. still, I'll give them props for creating something cohesive after 13 years apart 
. it's amazing to see them finally release new music under one moniker, and with their longtime collaborators MJ Lenderman and Brad Cook on board, I know this album is gonna be fire 
It's been ages since we last got new music from Waxahatchee & Swearin', but Katie & Allison brought the heat w/ this 13 track masterpiece. MJ Lenderman & Brad Cook killing it on production duties, btw! 
They're basically meant to be a duo, I mean they've been collabing for over 20 yrs... it's like they were always meant to do this together
