The Courettes, Position Nuit

The Courettes headline Gold-Diggers with Position Nuit listed in support. The Brazilian-Danish duo of Flavia Couri, on vocals and guitar, and drummer and vocalist Martin Couri arrive behind their fourth album, The Soul Of… The Fabulous Courettes. Expect the pair’s compact, forceful setup to carry the night, with the new record presented as their biggest, widest and deepest release yet.

The Courettes describe their sound as a “garage Wall of Sound duo,” joining 1960s garage rock and early-punk drive to girl-group harmonies and fuzzed-out guitars. Their music also draws on doo-wop, surf, Motown and Phil Spector-style production, and they have shared stages with The Sonics, The Pretty Things, Holly Golightly, The BellRays, Jon Spencer, Weezer and Wilco. Rolling Stone called them “the real sound of now”; MOJO heard “a giddy rush of noise,” while Vive Le Rock called them “the real deal.” A Brighton and Hove News live review went further, describing them as “one of the most storming rock ’n’ roll duos that you’ll ever see.”
