With her official UK debut, “The Double EP: A Sea of Split Peas”, Australian singer-songwriter Courtney Barnett cast her woozy spell over listeners with her hazy tales of suburban banalities and mindless procrastination, with the track “Avant Gardener”

Now, as Barnett is readying her debut LP proper (due for release later in the year), she returns to the UK for a series of  shows. Her first two gigs in London this month (at the Sebright Arms and Ace Hotel) may have already sold out. she’s playing a slew of dates in May as well, taking in festivals like The Great Escape,  Primavera Barcelona and Porto and Field Day, as well as her own headline shows across the country.

“The Double EP: A Sea of Split Peas” is available now on House Anxiety/ Marathon Artists.
