Waxahatchee (Katie Crutchfield) released a new single, “Tomorrow.” The song appears on the soundtrack for the Apple TV+ animated show El Deafo which arrives on January 7 and is available for pre-order.
Apple TV’s El Deafo is based on the New York Times best-selling graphic novel by author and illustrator Cece Bell. The show’s main character, also named Cece, loses her hearing and “learns to navigate school and new friends with the help of her superhero alter ego, El Deafo,” as per Merge Records.
Crutchfield worked with renowned musician and TV/film composer Rob Barbato to create the soundtrack’s five songs. Katie shared her experience working on the project:
“I’m so happy to finally announce an amazing project I had the honor of being a part of,” she said. “Last year, I wrote some original music for a new show on Apple TV+ called El Deafo, based on the book of the same name by a true hero, Cece Bell. Myself along with Rob Barbato spent a few months arranging and recording these tunes, and it was an amazing experience all around.”
