24-year-old Melbourne-based singer, guitarist and songwriter Courtney Barnett unveils the video to 'Avant Gardener', taken fromt he album 'The Double EP: A Sea of Split Peas'.
The LP collection is a record of two halves, and collates Her Story So Far…It fittingly begins with six brand new songs and is then backed with six older tracks which were originally released in the form of her 2012 debut EP. Together, 'The Double EP: A Sea of Split Peas' spans genres and stories, and is unique introduction to an incomparable and exciting new talent. Currently streaming on Pitchfork Advance and accompanied by drawings penned by Barnett herself, it is another window into the artist's clever and witty world.
As well as 'Avant Gardener', selected highlights include the gorgeous and woozy piano-strewn opener 'Out of the Woodwork' which shows the darker side of her writing. 'Anonymous Club' sees Courtney at her romantic, melancholic best, while the infectious Dylan-esque cavalcade that is 'History Eraser' was recently nominated alongside Tame Impala for the APRA Song Of The Year back in Australia.
Courtney Barnett is preparing for her first ever European and North American visit. She’ll be showcasing with a slew of shows at New York’s CMJ and the heading to London and Paris for a debut run of dates. European dates below.
