After leaving home at 16 to pursue music, Courtney slept in tents or at gas stations and played for anyone who would listen. She put out a handful of records in between bartending shifts and other side gigs like singing back-ups for the band Jimmy Eat World. We are thrilled that road led Courtney to World Cafe. She shares stories about being raised on the gospel of kindness and being taught to sing by Aretha Franklin (kinda), and performs music you don’t want to miss from her country-folk leaning new album May Your Kindness Remain.
