Acclaimed American songwriters Courtney Marie Andrews and Robert Ellis are coming to Melbourne

Words by Staff Writer

It is with great pleasure that Love Police presents the magnetic vibes of one of Americana’s shining stars Courtney Marie Andrews who will be joined by the delicate, reedy tenor of none other than Robert Ellis.

The brilliant Courtney Marie Andrews is a songwriter with a wealth of experience under her belt who has worked as a session and backup musician for countless artists, as well as picking up admirers including Ryan Adams and Jurado along the way.

It’s a musical match made in acoustic folk-godly heaven, with this sublime pairing of two of the greatest American contemporary singer-songwriters around today.

Phoenix-born Courtney Marie Andrews will be bringing her band with her for the first time to Australia after a successful solo run around the country in 2021 where the poetic songstress made many friends and fans.

Fresh from releasing the acclaimed Loose Future last year, Courtney’s dreamy and joyful songs written on the honey-coloured shores of Cape Cod, will be shared along the East Coast as well as supporting The Teskey Brothers on their welcome home summer tour.

Also adventuring off the back of a new release is Robert Ellis following on from his heartfelt and nostalgic Yesterday’s News (2023, Love Police Records & Tapes).

Robert’s songwriting style has been praised as a ‘sharp eye for storytelling’ by Rolling Stone, his intricate fingerpicking likened to Nick Drake and Richard Thompson, but his songs make you stop in your place and take note.
