Courtney Marie Andrews: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

[@ramboruiz]

When your good looks fade may your kindness remain... lovely!

[@jessicabloom6826]

I instantly start crying every time I hear her sing. Absolutely beautiful! What a gift Courtney has!

[@zaneridings3789]

Table for One came on a playlist and I instantly fell in love with how pretty and sad the music was.

[@jimmyoddsocks8666]

Yes, she definitely has that quality, doesn't she?

[@jsan2548]

Got to host her for a house show some years back. Seriously a quality human and been “the next big thing” in my book since 2010. Phenomenal songwriter.

[@GamesSatisfy]

It is very nice when an incredible artist can capture a genre of music a specific listener would usually dislike or feel neutral about, and absolutely revitalize it and make it generational.

[@alicelupe8494]

I've been looking for this for years, I just didn't know it.

[@doctor19741]

honestly, just bend the knee and bow at this lady's feet.. amazing singer/songwriter.. modern day Joni :))) P.s. she has the greatest band .. so intuitive and respectful to the singer and the songs.... saw them live in Whelans, Dublin.. i'm all in :)

[@TheBabyDumbo]

Had one of her songs from her Honest Life album pop up on my Spotify discovery playlist a couple of years ago, and I've been a fan ever since. Such a wonderful voice she's got

[@mariemilligan1723]

Such a timeless songwriter and a voice that seems poured from your heart. Beautiful.

[@stevenarthur2550]

Had the privilege of watching her open for Jason Isbell. Amazing, talented artist. The power of her voice is a reckoning live.

[@thomascarroll1551]

I have 4 of Courtney's albums. She's really wonderful.

[@RCshockwave]

Absolutely wonderful , pure gem ! Discovered with "the honest life" album on KEXP live , i'm still in love with this music . Love from France!

[@Weirder_the_better]

Instantly covered in tears and goosebumps. I loved this.

[@Mukundanghri]

Wow! Wasn't expecting this; bravo.

[@friendship6668]

Woman of Many Colors is one of the best female records in the last 20 years. She's got a great vibe to her & what a great voice! 💕💕

[@arman0612]

Finally! One of the best singers out there! This album is pure gold.

[@PompetusDad]

I've been listening to songs since the 60s but this makes me cry like no other song.

[@adelah]

may your kindness remain so good Courtney!

[@DonGerd2011]

Yess, another Tiny desk diamond.

[@lucvaillancourt8580]

Great gospel style. So heartfelt. Very nice!

[@jeremyhall5268]

Just class! Easy to reference Emmylou, Ronstadt, Mitchell or Baez here but TBH it doesn't matter just a beautiful performance!!👌🏻

[@nickharvey7233]

Shades of Joni Mitchell - lovely.

[@prettyhamburger6462]

That's exactly what I thought!

[@fallinginthed33p]

And Nick Cave in a higher register.

[@catarinacardoso1]

One of the best discoveries I’ve had so far. Thanks for bringing so much meaning to your songs, Court.

[@societyenemy]

Good lord, this was great!!!

[@torontolarrivee7965]

Man that first song brings a tear to the eye

[@adamjimenez4271]

You are a rockstar Courtney! Love your music!

[@mspussygalore]

*YOU BETTA SANG IT GIRL!!*

[@NaSalaMusic]

Very very very good mix/master

[@Zoso37123]

Wow this was incredible. Thank you

[@esmth]

Beautiful voice!

[@jackrosess]

She's amazing!

[@ceciliaw1065]

Beautiful music

[@tomher9735]

Love CMA so much. What a voice.

[@min025499]

I love your voice i’m happy to hear your voice

[@vincekuijper]

Wow, amazing voice.

[@subscriberswithoutvideos-rf8tt]

I LOVE IT!

[@sungazer888]

Beautiful voice

[@cerclesvicieux]

I've really been digging into Indie Fold bnds and I had been surfing KZbin trying to get into Laura Marlins, and I saw a comment that comapredd her to Dylan, Joni MItchel & Cat Powers. Joni Mitchel not so much, Cat Powers maybe, and yet she simply wasn't overwelming me wiht any of her songs. Then I stumbled across the song "Near You" by Courtney Marie Andrews and was immediately floored. I find her vocals to be far more athentic & traditional, perhaps this is what I was looking for all along. I really love this artist.

[@mesquite7297]

Woo Alassane Diarra on keys, love you!

[@nastasecarmennastase4327]

Nice song!

[@jimmynordin3784]

Lovely music Courtney :)

[@rogerthoreson9741]

you got it or you dont . it lives here for sure... dusty roads to moonlight steeples . her boots have done some walkin

[@pageluvva]

She is as fine a songwriter as has ever graced us. Yep I said it.

[@alexandriaeve3946]

Finally you’re on NPR music haha 💕

[@funkymusic5749]

AWESOME😎🎸🎵🎶🎵🎶❤

[@brucedenis71]

"Hey man, which of your basses has the shortest neck?" "I got a Fender Mustang..." "Cool, bring that one."

[@McOuroborosBurger]

Bruce Denis I think my Jackson minion bass wins that contest at gigs.

[@TheGuitarFromOz]

In the right mood, this can be highly emotional... verified :'/

[@pageluvva]

Nice comment. Agreed.

[@zaneridings3789]

I was listening to the record and This House came on and I hella related to that "Tucker's buried in the back yard" line

[@shelbymartinez104]

Major Linda Ronstadt energy

[@ashleyfeller5816]

As if Joni Mitchell and Linda Ronstadt had a baby. I love this lady's music.

[@chefyanayano]

Great voice! Not my style of music at all, but I have to say it's very well performed👍

[@Hradec]

Started hearing her and this song came immediately in my mind: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZnIYpKFa9x7arM She actually sounds even better than Joni Mitchell! Keep up the good word! I'm a fan now... it's actually a relief to hear her singing theses days, where everything sounds the same... There's a reason songs and singers from the 70's are still being heard today: Because they where f#@$#@$ awesome... They made music from the soul!! Courtney Marie Andrews sounds like the 70's... not because she sounds old, but because I can hear her soul in her singing!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH, COURTNEY ... please keep singing!!!

[@popcornisfromcorn]

hesl yeah

[@aeldrynn1690]

A part of joan baez Great inheritance

[@StevenBornfeld]

Came after seeing her open for John Prine (!) last night here in Brooklyn. Vocally, what can you say? Reminiscent perhaps of a young Ronstadt, or perhaps Emmylou--not a bad territory to inhabit. But then there are her songs, and then opening for Prine has to say something. And is she game? Apparently fell down a flight of stairs the night before, and was in the hospital with a concussion (not that I'd know anything had happened, had she not said so). If there's any justice she's going to have a big career.

[@CFernandoVazquezOlvera]

Súper!!!

[@MattFoleysGhost]

Whoa. I hear some Joni in that voice.

[@jojo_beans]

Tell me what setup I need to get that mf guitar tone I need that sound in my life.

[@diaspo]

Channeling Linda Ronstadt

[@Bodyknowledge77]

and Joan Baez

[@anthoni426]

I keep finding out that some of the people that are going to be at the Winnipeg Folk Festival (which I extremely and exceedingly would like to go to, but unfortunately and most likely cannot and will not go to) are actually previously or now on Tiny Desk. I keep on finding people I already heard about before/ really quite famous people are here. I am glad NPR exists. I also get to hear a lot of different people. I feel quite musically prominent? I don't think that is the word, but I think it is neat I heard of many of these artists before they are on TDC.

[@paoxxxj8076]

Love her !! And great band too :) Consistently and effortlessly on point x

[@miakie]

Plz get Alice Phoebe Lou on here!!!

[@davidparnell1893]

Courtney...love your sound...at times you sound like young Joni Mitchell!!

[@soundmethod]

Holy shit I think I just had a filling fall out and now I cant find my dog!!

[@mrfomiatti5515]

Great tune. 🚬

[@Hiimaustin13]

You should invite Josie Dunn!

[@TheArtofBlues]

I bought her shirt. Ive never bought a shirt from a singer songwriter ever. Pay attention musicians if you don’t believe in what you are singing about why do it?

[@makingmovesz]

Yahs.

[@DrakenWolfwood]

My god can she stop making me cry? I'd appreciate it if she's not do that

[@codigobinario101]

👍 for you , in youtube: código binario "la Tierra está enferma"

She needs to slow it down just a bit.

Please Get Billie Eilish on here

[@richievann4628]

She was kinda annoying in my opinion

[@davereichert]

Then click on the next video, and keep your damned opinion to yourself.

[@ayomiku22]

Guitar is bigger damn her whole body should have picked something smaller.

[@mm-vg7dm]

Yeah... the first thing i noticed too :)

[@Trombonology]

As a female guitarist myself, I can say that guitar-to-body visual proportions do not necessarily govern the choice of instrument.

[@bigb333]

@@Trombonology As someone who isn't an idiot myself, I can say you hit the nail on the head.

[@billyakin3301]

Yeah...because what she looks like with her guitar is the most important thing...SMH...

[@ayomiku22]

@@billyakin3301 Yes that is important comfortability and size effects your ability to play which is clear in this video.
