COURTNEY BARNETT
Wins Best Rock Album – 2018 ARIA Awards
New shows announced with Camp Cope
.
.
Courtney Barnett last night made history when she became the first ever solo female artist to win the Best Rock Album category at the ARIA Awards. Barnett’s achievement was all the more significant given the fact that she released her album independently through her own label Milk! Records – she’s just the second fully independent artist to win the award.
The award is deserved recognition for Barnett whose second album Tell Me How You Really Feel lived up to near-impossibly high expectations and has seen her touring globally to packed houses for much of the year. Recognition at home for an artist who has become truly global.
Barnett and her band (featuring Dave Mudie, Bones Sloane and Katie Harkin) also ignited the The Star Event Centre with a fierce performance of ‘Charity’.

This summer will see Courtney Barnett and her band bring their scorching live show back home to festival stages across the country. They’ll be headlining Fairgrounds Festival this weekend and continuing in early 2019 with Laneway Festival, Mona Foma and Mountain Sounds.
Today it has been announced the band will play two very special shows with Camp Cope in Darwin and Cairns in January 2019. The dream two-show-only line-up of two of Australia’s most powerful live acts should make for some extraordinary performances in the country’s far north.
