Here’s Your First Look at Courtney Barnett’s MTV Unplugged Performance

Recorded at Brunswick’s Howler last month, the episode will feature a performance of ‘Charcoal Lane’, which the pair covered back in 2015 for the 25th anniversary of the song.

 

“I love playing to Melbourne crowds,” said Barnett.  “I wanted to have a mixture of old songs, new songs and covers, and tracks that we don’t perform all the time – it’s been interesting to see the songs through a different filter, and it brings out this other emotional side to the music and the lyrics”.

 

“Unplugged is so nostalgic for me. We had two Unplugged Records in our CD collection growing up and I know those records inside out because we listened to them every day.”

 

The program will air on Sunday November 17 at 6:30pm, but for now check out the preview below.
