Courtney Barnett has today announced a very special run of intimate shows. This will be her first ever solo tour of the USA.

Taking in venues intimate, iconic and beautiful, Barnett will perform alone on stage accompanied by nothing but her own guitar. The tour promises to deliver something special for fans with Barnett’s incredible songwriting and guitar-playing laid bare and up close.

These shows represent something of a return to formative years for Barnett, a journey back to basics. After all, this is the mode where Barnett developed and refined her extraordinary word-play and poetry before taking it to the world.

Aside from these dates, Barnett will also be performing at Wilco’s Sky Blue Sky Festival in the Riviera Maya, Mexico and will support Brandi Carlile for two special nights at the Ryman Theater in Nashville.

Barnett will be bringing Melbourne-via-Germany musician Hachiku on the road with her as support. Hachiku (Anika Ostendorf to her friends) releases music through the label Barnett founded, Milk! Records.
