This weekend the AU review sat down amongst other media with Melbourne’s singer/songwriter, Courtney Barnett at St Jerome’s Laneway Festival in Singapore.
In this interview Barnett is joined by one part of her band, and together we find out which city Barnett refers to as ‘the best place in the world.’ We discuss the origin of Barnett’s witty lyrics and she reveals how she sarcasm has become her safety net. We go on to talk about the artist’s angst-ridden teen years and her love for 90’s grunge band, Nirvana.
Next we chat about the progression and metamorphosis of Barnett’s songs and she opens up about her much-anticipated album that is set to debut this March. Lastly, we find out which past festivals Barnett has enjoyed playing the most. You can still catch Courtney on the remaining Australian dates of the Laneway Festival now. Dates are as follows:
Jan 31: Brisbane, QLD, Australia
Feb 1: Sydney, NSW, Australia
Feb 6: Adelaide, SA, Australia
Feb 7: Footscray, VIC, Australia
Feb 8: Fremantle, WA Australia
