Courting
Amoeba San Francisco - June 20th @ 5:30pm
Liverpool’s Courting joins us at Amoeba SF on Friday, June 20th at 5:30pm for a live set and signing of their third album, Lust for Life, Or: ‘How To Thread The Needle And Come Out The Other Side To Tell The Story’ (out now via Lower Third). This is a free, all-ages event. Buy their new album to get it signed after their set.
Also catch them later that night at Cafe du Nord!
Less than a year after their second record, New Last Name, Courting return with a leaner, sharper sound, while solidifying their mischievous genre-blending reputation with eight meticulously crafted tracks that balance an infectious pop sensibility with intense, playful experimentation.
After exploring the grand theatrical style of New Last Name, this new album marks a shift toward a stripped-back, direct approach.“We wanted to keep everything incredibly direct - to hit everyone in the face and leave,”explains vocalist Sean Murphy-O’Neill. Yet despite its immediacy, the album retains the band’s characteristic wit, loaded with hidden references, in-jokes, and musical Easter eggs that reflect a true blend of fun and sophistication.
