Courtney Marie Andrews returns with “Cons And Clowns”, her first new music for three years.

“’Cons And Clowns’ is an ode to all the artists, outsiders, and shy loved ones you want to see shine!,” says Andrews. “In this world of growing sameness I wanted to write a love letter of encouragement to anyone who was afraid to be their wildest and weirdest self, especially amid the dark landscape of now. With a desire to embody the unencumbered playfulness of youth, I played the flute on this track, an instrument I haven’t played since my childhood.”

Andrews is joined by drummer Grizzly Bear‘s Chris Bear, with producer Jerry Benhardt adding bass, high strung guitar, piano, juno, farfisa and mellotron.

In the three years since Loose Future, Andrews published her second collection of poetry – Love Is a Dog That Bites When It’s Scared, via Simon & Schuster – and has exhibited her artwork in US galleries.
