Courtney Barnett is an Australian singer/songwriter originally from Sydney, New South Wales; later moving to Hobart where she began performing music in 2006 before relocating to Melbourne in 2010.Courtney puts a lot of effort into sounding effortless.

Her songs are wild and wooly and wordy, her lyrics plainspoken and delivered like she’s making them up on the spot. Court’s debut album, Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit (2015), is out now! And can be ordered here on official site: www.
