My new crush.

mine too.

But I don't want to ruin her for you

[zeb]

At least there's one thing we can agree on, stip.

[Tim]

I'm a huge fan. Great lyrics.

[zeb]

Her current release is fantastic. Very pleased to hear that she's recorded a new album for release early next year.

Also very pleased to hear that Dan Luscombe (lead guitarist of The Drones) has become the fourth member of the band. He was soloing so hard the other night that his whammy bar fell out of his guitar.

JP: You looked totally calm performing on Jimmy Fallon, were you actually quite nervous? I’m often seconds away from panic during TV appearances. Also, whenever I meet comedians, I always can’t help but try to be funny too, and I know that I’m not that funny. Your lyrics would imply that you have a good sense of humour… were you tempted to get all Larry David on him?

CB: I was so calm which is weird for me because I’m normally a nervous person. The conclusion I’ve come to is that it was such a surreal situation that I didn’t really believe it was happening, so I was eerily OK. I was half expecting to walk onstage and have Jimmy Fallon announce “And here’s Courtney Barnett with her song… Just kidding! Roll credits guys!”

Completely fucking Australian.

Hopefully this one is on the new one.

I could listen to her sing anything.

[stip]

I was hanging out with a friend from Australia this week and I was all excited to talk about Courtney with her but she had never heard of her

[Strat]

I'm smitten

[zeb]

This is what they sound like live. Even better than on record.

[zeb]

She plays without a pick and she fucking slays.
