Wisecrack is an independent folk-pop album by Canadian singer-songwriter Haley Blais, released on 15 September 2023 by Arts & Crafts.
Wisecrack was inspired by 1990s and early 2000s indie music and touches on themes of nostalgia, childhood, family and morality.
[2] Blais recorded Wisecrack at Protection Island Studio in Maple Ridge, British Columbia,[3] completing the album in 2022.
In May 2023, Blais signed with Canadian record label Arts & Crafts and announced a limited summer tour.
[1][2][9] Writing for The Georgia Straight, Mike Usinger has said that the moral of the album is "Sometimes you end up working things out, even if you’re not aware of it.
"[2] Ljubinko Zivkovic in The Spill Magazine said that the album is about Blais' attempt to find new families while her parents were in the process of ending their relationship.
