At 19, Courtney continues to astound audiences with her extraordinary vocals and unforgettably soulful performances, often prompting comparisons to the legendary Janis Joplin. Courtney’s musical journey began early; as a self-taught artist, she spent countless hours emulating idols such as Tina Turner, Etta James, and James Brown while developing a unique musical personality. She credits a pivotal moment at age nine, watching a young girl like herself take to the stage on Britain’s Got Talent, as the spark that ignited her passion for music.
