Courtney Barnett Announces Here and There Touring Festival

Courtney Barnett has announced a boutique touring festival in North America called Here and There. The touring festival begins in Kansas City, Missouri on August 8 and concludes in Denver, Colorado on September 3. Along the way, Barnett will perform in major cities like Cleveland, Chicago, Vancouver, San Diego, and Austin. Check out the full list of dates below.

Each date on the Here and There Tour will include a unique lineup curated by Barnett herself, including Sleater-Kinney, Japanese Breakfast, Waxahatchee, Lucy Dacus, Snail Mail, and Bartees Strange. Other openers slated to perform include Alvvays, Arooj Aftab, Bedouine, Caroline Rose, Chicano Batman, Ethel Cain, Faye Webster, Fred Armisen, Hana Vu, Indigo De Souza, Julia Jacklin, Leith Ross, Lido Pimienta, Quinn Christopherson, the Beths, and Wet Leg.

“When I was a kid I would make mixtapes and dream up my own festivals, I’d even design the T-shirts and pair up musicians for iconic collaborations. I’d listen to the mixtape and pretend it was the live recording of a concert, all my favorite artists on stage together,” said Barnett in a statement. “Ten years ago I wrote this lyric: ‘I got lost somewhere between here and there, I’m not sure what the town was called.’ Whether that was meant to be interpreted as a geographical, emotional or philosophical journey, I thought it was the perfect title for my roaming festival.”

Barnett’s most recent album, Things Take Time, Take Time, came out in 2021. Earlier this year, she released the documentary Anonymous Club.
