@courtneybarnettmusic Courtney Barnett brings Creature of Habit to KCRW for a loud, loose, and gloriously fuzzed-out performance.
Traditionally, Courtney Barnett has never needed much to make a room feel electric. A guitar, a stellar rhythm section, and a few perfectly placed deadpan observations will usually do the trick. Back again at KCRW’s Annenberg Performance Studio for a very special Live On KCRW performance, Barnett is in particularly fine form — loose, loud, and clearly having a great time.

When @ajamonet arrived in the Annenberg Performance Space, a hush fell over the audience. They leaned in, and Monet took her place – performing not behind a micstand, but behind a podium. Flowers burst from every surface of the instruments. Giant tapestries provided a feel both regal and contemporary.
