“An absolutely perfect little gem of an album… every song here sparkles… … a truly substantial talent”
 
★★★★★ The Daily Telegraph
 “Andrews melds dovetailing, Joni Mitchell-like melodies with pin-sharp lyrics that recall the pre-didactic Laura Marling, over a country sound bed of keening pedal steel and cascading piano. It makes for a stunning combination.”

- The Sunday Times

“In three and a half minutes, it articulated what I had spent 18 months trying to say” - Laura Barton/ The Guardian
 “With her "coming of age album" the 26-year-old from Arizona stops being a well kept secret and makes a real breakthrough” -

Discussing the video, which sees Courtney driving an RV through America, Courtney stated, “This old RV is the biggest piece of work that's ever come into my possession, but also the most fun when we can get it to run. Put the Fire Out is a tune about getting back to ones you know and love after spending so much of your time on the road. By the end of the video I get there, but it takes a long drive.”

Courtney is fast becoming one of the most talked about artists in recent years in the UK after critically acclaimed album ‘Honest Life’ recently released on Loose, topped the UK Americana chart and was the No.1 selling album the week of the Americana Music Association UK’s annual Conference & Awards.
