Courtney Barnett

In April 2014, Courtney Barnett delivered a stunning live performance of "Avant Gardener" at the legendary Electric Lady Studios in New York. At this time, Barnett had just released her critically acclaimed debut album, "The Double EP: A Sea of Split Peas," which had already begun to establish her distinct voice in indie rock. What’s fascinating is how this album showcases her sharp wit and narrative style, evident in tracks like "Avant Gardener," where she blends everyday anxieties with a touch of humor. This session at such an iconic venue not only highlights her rising career but also underscores her unique position in the music landscape during that period, bringing a delightful mix of rawness and polished sound that fans have come to love. Plus, it's amazing to think that a future star was being recorded in one of the most famous studios in music history!
