Courtney Dowe is a Baltimore, Maryland based singer/songwriter who has spent most of her life absorbing and fine tuning the music she loves. Counterpoint Records is thrilled to release her sublime debut album, “Accomplice”, which is produced and arranged by Fertile Ground band leader, James Collins (a man who consistently recognises great talent when he hears it).
This deeply personal collection of acoustic, soul searching, songs speak of love, struggle and social injustice as observed by this selfdescribed street musician. Lyrically and musically astute, and free of the acoustic soul cliches so often associated with the genre.
Courtneys’ music incorporates elements of folk, soul, blues and funk into her raw guitar sound. Each track on “Accomplice” has a story to tell, and all are executed with poetic verve and passion. The core sound mostly feature Courtney’s unusual guitar phrasing, with some occasional auxiliary instrumentation, such as the stripped down funk of “Might” the and the summery sambatinged “Dancer Blue” (now available on a limited 300 run 7” single).
We are supremely confident of Courtney Dowe’s musical horizon and can’t wait to bring her over here and on the stage – from her natural habitat, Stateside.
