Courtney Barnett started Milk! Records in 2012 to release her first EP I’ve Got A Friend Called Emily Ferris. Soon aftercame the second EP How To Carve A Carrot Into A Rose. She took her band overseas with a condensed back catalogue called The Double EP: A Sea Of Split Peas. In 2015 Barnett released album Sometimes I Sit And Think, And Sometimes I Just Sit to worldwide critical acclaim. the Australian storyteller who loves to rock hard and help give Melbourne a good name.
A live record in remembrance of a great gig and this is worth hearing though Courtney is not at her best. She’s more restrained than when I saw her and the band could be better, But the lyrics remain clever and funny and it’s great when the demi-goddess of the guitar revs up.
