Courtney Barnett
In the hands of indie rocker Courtney Barnett, fragments of everyday life become rich and riveting. A deft lyricist and virtuosic guitarist, she is an emblem of millennial wit and one of Australia’s most successful musical exports.
Based for much of her adult life in Melbourne, Barnett first found critical acclaim with 2013’s The Double EP: A Sea of Split Peas, and broke into the mainstream in 2015 with her debut album, Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit, which spawned the hit single"Pedestrian at Best".
Garnering a coveted Best New Artist Grammy nomination and numerous other accolades, the album stands as a generational classic.
Barnett followed her debut with an acclaimed collaborative with Kurt Vile, and eschewed the vignettes of her early records with humid, political songs including the Margaret Atwood-invoking single “Nameless, Faceless”.
Barnett is also a powerhouse live act, playing slots at festivals including Coachella, Bonnaroo, Governor’s Ball, Primavera, and Lollapalooza: translating the chaos of the world into sparkling, indelible poetry.
