Is Courtney Barnett "all that" ?
-
courtney barnett has really garnered raves for her debut cd, " sometimes I sit and think, and sometimes I just sit"--supposed to boast witty lyrics and she sings and plays guitar well, etc. I must hie me to Youtube and check her out, is she really that good? A fine new artist on the scene and all that. I recall being enthused about Lorde when she first appeared, but now am somewhat tired of her. I wonder if Courtney would suffer the same fate

The problem with massively hyped artists I think is that marketing is often more creative than the music. Artists that looks good on television is chosen instead of musicians. One thing you can count on with the record industry is that it considers the record buying public as blithering idiots.
