Brennan Wedl Joins ANTI-, Releases 'Six O'Clock News' Cover With Waxahatchee

The deal channels Waxahatchee mentorship into studio work plus a tour slot.

Overview

  • Brennan Wedl has signed to influential indie label ANTI- and issued a studio cover of Kathleen Edwards’ “Six O’Clock News” with Waxahatchee, produced by Katie Crutchfield and Brad Cook.
  • Wedl will open the Waxahatchee–MJ Lenderman co-headlining tour, with a press release saying she and Waxahatchee plan to perform the cover and other collaborations live.
  • The new track revives Edwards’ 2002 song about gun-violence hysteria, which Wedl says helped shape her songwriting voice.
  • The label move follows years of public support from Waxahatchee’s Katie Crutchfield and a direct A&R connection through Allison Crutchfield at ANTI-.
  • Kathleen Edwards praised the rendition as giving her song a new life, and the ANTI- signing positions Wedl for broader exposure through the label’s reach.
