Sounds Familiar #1: Ann Courtney

On the inaugural episode of Sounds Familiar my guest is Ann Courtney; singer/songwriter of NYC staple Mother Feather. Ann and I sat down back in July to talk about the ups and downs of being a creative performer, how NYC's music scene has changed in the last twenty years, what music's been turning us on and a lot more.

Ann grew up the daughter of U.S. diplomats, spending her high school years in Pakistan and the Philippines before moving to New York in 1999. In 2010 she formed Mother Feather, eventually getting a label deal with Metal Blade Records which released the band's self-titled debut in 2015. The following year saw Mother Feather traveling with Warped Tour and in 2018 the band released their second album, Constellation Baby.
