Courtney Barnett's songs are wild, shaggy and wordy, mixing witty, mundane, and sometimes heartbreaking observations with devastating self-assessment. And with a sound rooted in the slack jangle-rock of the late 1980s and the early 1990s, Barnett delivers plainspoken lyrics and roll off the tongue as if she's thinking them up on the spot. You can hear that in her break-out song "Avant Gardener" or in "Pedestrian At Best," from 2015's superb album, Sometimes I Sit and Think, And Sometimes I Just Sit, in which she spits off a list of personal insecurities and internal monologues to an former love. The Australia native plays songs from Sometimes I Sit and Think, And Sometimes I Just Sit in a live session from The Greene Space. (From the Archives, 2015.) Set List: "Dead Fox" "Depreston" "Pedestrian At Best" "An Illustration Of Loneliness (Sleepless In New York)"

We're back again with Courtney Barnett's 2015 Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit. - a punchy, wordy, refreshing thrill of a record from a young Australian song craft master. With an understated pride for her home (and a hook), Courtney's incredibly detailed lyrics, both dry and wistful, float on clean but pumping '90s tinged alt rock. Her sharp observations mirror the music and because of that we think you should just listen to this episode. Now hear this: "Elevator Operator," “Pedestrian at Best," and “Depreston."Have something to say?

The "Living in the Music City: If you've got a spare half a million" event was held at the Toff in Town in Melbourne as part of the 2019 Festival of Urbanism. It was co-sponsored by Monash Urban Planning and Design, along with the Henry Halloran Trust, and the University of Sydney, and by the City of Melbourne as part of their Music Plan 2018-2021. The Festival aims to raise the debate about urban health, and other key topics. “Living in the Music City” combined a panel discussion of policy and research issues around live music in cities, followed by a performance of songs. Both sections examined the past and future of Melbourne’s live music venues in the context of the city’s housing pressures. The name for the Music City event comes from a research project several Monash University academics are involved in, “Interrogating the music city: cultural economy & popular music in Melbourne”. The subtitle – “If you’ve got a spare half a million” - is a reference to the Courtney Barnett 2016 song ‘Depreston’. This episode is the recording of the second half - the musician part. The musicians are: Frank Jones (https://www.frankjones.com.au) Sarah Taylor (of Taylor Project www.taylorproject.com.au) Brett Lee / Pirritu (@pirritumusic, Instagram: @pirritumusic, YouTube: https://youtu.be/7w7kXZV1Pgg) Liz Taylor (senior lecturer in urban planning and design at Monash University, also playing violin on some songs here). Songs: My Brown Yarra (by Frank Jones, performed with others) Ngurrampaa (by/performed by Brett Lee / Pirritu) Buddy could you spare a dime (Sarah Taylor, cover of Yip Harburg song) Greenacres Lane (by/performed by Frank Jones) Secret Shape (by/performed by Brett Lee / Pirritu) Slow Tram Comin' (by/performed by Sarah Taylor) For Barry Dickins (by/performed by Frank Jones) Time I Spoke (by/performed by Brett Lee / Pirritu) Detroit (by/performed by Sarah Taylor) Pine Cone (by/performed by Brett Lee / Pirritu) Suburban Rendezvous (by/performed by Frank Jones) DePreston (by Courtney Barnett, performed by all).
“Living in the Music City: If You’ve got a Spare Half A Million” was held at Melbourne’s Toff in Town on September 2nd as part of the 2019 Festival of Urbanism. The idea of the event is to look at how live music and the night-time economy are shaped by the cost and availability of housing. The first half of the title, the Music City, derives from a three-year research project “Interrogating the music city: cultural economy & popular music in Melbourne”. The second half of the title – “If you’ve got a spare half a million” - is a reference to the Courtney Barnett 2016 song ‘Depreston’. The song’s lyrics refer not only to the spatial dynamics of the cost of housing in Melbourne, but to migration and change in the city generally. (Note: this episode of This Must Be The Place was put together before the Festival of Urbanism event in September 2019). The event will look at housing and music through a combination of academic panel discussion, and live song performances. It includes both panel discussion and music partly because it’s more fun, and partly because it’s always strange to talk about music without including music, as in a 1979 quote best attributable to comedian Martin Mull, that “writing about music is like dancing about architecture” (but – why not?), or an older quote, from a 1918 New Republic article, that “writing about music is as illogical as singing about economics”. There might be a bit of the latter, “singing about economics”, because both now and in 1918, singing about economics does happen, and you don’t have to look far for songs with words like “money”, “dollar” or “rent” in them. For this episode I’ve looked back over 2 years of This Must Be The Place podcasts to find some episodes where we’ve talked about aspects of live music and its relationships to place. The episode comprises 7 relevant clips from previous episodes – these are compiled here kind of as re-runs. Or a nicer wording might be that they’re ‘curated’ selections, a ‘best of’ or ‘hits out’ collection, of This Must Be The Place talking music and place. Including: • Interview with Seamus O’Hanlon, Author of “City Life – the new urban Australia” • Musicians, memoirs and maps: a bookish Curtin-side chat with Sarah Taylor and Sam Whiting • Revisiting “Melbourne on Foot” (1980 book): St Kilda walking tour with Prof Graham Davison (also Richmond walking tour) • Dogs in Space to Olives in Toolleen: Small bands, small farms with Charles (‘Chuck’ Meo) and Ceilidh • Visit to Clunes Booktown Festival: Incl. David’s Talk on “Dig: Australian Rock & Pop Music, 1960-85” • Lachlan from the Ocean Party on why hotel hell is actually pretty swell
Auch wenn - vor allem die deutschen - Charts das noch nicht abbilden: die spannendste Gitarrenmusik kommt gerade vor allem von jungen Songwriterinnen. Die in Sydney geborene Courtney Barnett ist eines der besten Beispiele für diese These. In ihren Texten vermischen sich knochentrockener Humor, Selbstzweifel, Wortwitz, Kampfeslust, Poesie und Melancholie auf eine Weise, wie man sie selten zu hören bekommt. Wir empfehlen als Einstiegsdroge in ihr Oeuvre die Songs: „Avant Gardener", „Nameless, Faceless", „Depreston" und „Nobody Really Cares If You Don't Go To The Party".

Ado, les déménagements répétés m'ont gâché la vie ; c'est donc une thématique qui me touche particulièrement, au point que j'ai ouvert mon premier album avec "Welcome to a New Town" qui, comme l'indique son titre, parle de déménagement. Les chansons abordant ce thème sont assez rares, j'en ai sélectionné trois : "These Days" de Jackson Browne, "Depreston" de Courtney Barnett et "She's Leaving Home" des Beatles. Sinon, je participerai à une conférence intitulée "la musique à l'assaut du podcast" au festival MaMA le 17 octobre au Trianon, ensuite je passerai des disques au Pigalle Country Club. Vous êtes les bienvenus.
Earlier this year, in May 2018, Courtney Barnett released her second album, Tell Me How You Really Feel. And last fall, she and Kurt Vile made an album together. So I thought this would be a good time to go back and listen to an episode she did in January 2016 about “Depreston,” my favorite song from her first album. Here it is. Courtney Barnett released her debut album in March 2015. By the end of the year, she had been nominated for a Grammy for Best New Artist, Spin named her the Songwriter of the Year, and she won four ARIA Music Awards in her native Australia. In this episode, Courtney Barnett breaks down the song "Depreston," which began with a visit to an open house, on a house-hunting trip she took in the town of Preston. songexploder.net/courtney-barnett
Courtney Barnett discusses missing Australia, dealing with success, singing as pure communication, Toronto's Silver Dollar, her new album tell me how you really feel, and much more! Supported by Pizza Trokadero, the Bookshelf, Planet Bean Coffee, Grandad's Donuts, and Planet of Sound.
Dave Mudie, the deft powerhouse drummer who has been the engine room of Courtney Barnett's CB3 since 2012, joins me to talk about the album that changed music for him - and the rest of the world - Nirvana's iconic album Nevermind. We talk about how a love for Nirvana united Dave, Courtney and bassist Boanes Sloane when they first played together in country-psych band Immigrant Union, the influence of Dave Grohl on his playing in songs like Pedestrian at Best and Depreston, being gifted a bottle of scotch by Grohl at a gig, running after a Krist Novoselic lookalike by mistake, the unique perks of the power trio formate that Nirvana, Led Zeppelin and the CB3 all used to their advantage - and what Dave, Boanes and Courtney have been playing in the tour bus while traversing the globe for the past few years. We also delve into how producer Butch Vig used the ghost of John Lennon to convince Kurt Cobain to embrace more refined production, why Cobain later disavowed many aspects of the album, the track that almost didn't make it on the album due to human error, how the record label underestimated the demand for the album, and whether an album like Nevermind could have the same impact on the direction of music today. My Favorite Album is a podcast unpacking the great works of pop music. Each episode features a different songwriter or musician discussing their favorite album of all time - their history with it, the making of the album, individual songs and the album's influence on their own music. Jeremy Dylan is a filmmaker, journalist and photographer from Sydney, Australia who has worked in the music industry since 2007. He directed the the feature music documentary Jim Lauderdale: The King of Broken Hearts (out now!) and the feature film Benjamin Sniddlegrass and the Cauldron of Penguins, in addition to many commercials and music videos.

池卿:最后一期特辑了,其实这七期特辑并没有处心积虑的去构题。只是在偶然的一天发现这些心中积累的诉求有了倾诉的地方而已。散漫的思绪和不合时宜的时刻,构建出一篇片自己与自己的独白,一些十分幼稚的话语,尽管从现在看上去都会不禁莞尔但这样的自己,或许才是最贴近于真实的。 长达四个月的漂泊在外,目的和收获都可以先不提了,因为在时光和挽留面前的无能为力,不能说让我认清了事实,我想,至少明白了大致的方向,哪怕仅仅只是朦胧不堪。 不论是梦想中的城市,夙愿以求的学校,还是难以忘怀的那一个人。我真的能力有限,此时此刻也已经无能为力。但是我真的努力过,为了这些生命中所谓的难以取舍,我真的努力过。 欢迎收听荔枝FM516501这里是墨上纸尖。 【每周日更新】 BGM 1:cnblue-Daisy 2:love yourself-justin bieber 3:Depreston-courtney barnett 4:Maps-Maroon5
