Courtney Marie Andrews

Courtney Marie Andrews has returned with her first new song in three years – “Cons and Clowns” – a celebration of living authentically, and embracing our truest selves amidst the chaos of the current world. Showcasing the GRAMMY nominee’s “astonishingly beautiful” (Stereogum) vocal work, “Cons and Clowns” builds on a signature songwriting approach that “doesn’t just tell us truths; but makes us feel them poignantly, and right on time” (NPR Music).

“Cons & Clowns is an ode to all the artists, outsiders, and shy loved ones you want to see shine!,” says Andrews. “In this world of growing sameness I wanted to write a love letter of encouragement to anyone who was afraid to be their wildest and weirdest self, especially amid the dark landscape of now. With a desire to embody the unencumbered playfulness of youth, I played the flute on this track, an instrument I haven’t played since my childhood.”
