Waxahatchee expressed, 'I'm honored to be included in this re-record project as the album Box for Buddy, Box for Star has meant so much to me these last few years.' She praised Nate Amos, stating, 'I think Nate is one of the best songwriters of this moment, making music that feels current and timeless and also somehow ahead of a curve.'
As one half of Brooklyn-based duo Water From Your Eyes, Nate Amos makes left-field pop that feels hypermodern: wry, memey lyricism; post-ironic genre-hopping; the kind of jilted chaos and tonal jumble that characterises a social media feed. Yet the band had actually been plugging away for seven years before their 2023 breakthrough. Amos's solo project This Is Lorelei has been going even longer, only gaining proper traction with last year's belated debut album Box for Buddy, Box for Star.
