Barns Courtney, born Barnaby George Courtney on November 17, 1990, is a British singer-songwriter and musician known for his distinctive blend of indie rock and blues influences. Emerging into the music scene with a gritty and spirited sound, Courtney gained recognition with his debut single "Fire," which prominently featured in the Bradley Cooper-led film "Burnt" and brought him significant attention. His raspy vocal delivery and energetic performance style quickly became signatures.

Following the success of his early singles, Barns Courtney released his debut album "The Attractions of Youth" in 2017, solidifying his place in the rock music landscape with hit tracks like "Glitter & Gold" and "Golden Dandelions." Courtney's sophomore album, "404," released in 2019, showcased an evolution in his sound, embedding more experimental electronic elements while retaining the raw emotive storytelling of his lyrics. With a growing catalog that includes acoustic versions of his songs, like "Supernatural (Acoustic)" and "You And I (Acoustic)," Courtney demonstrates a versatile artistry that can both engage a festival crowd and captivate an intimate listener. His flair for anthemic choruses and foot-stomping rhythms has not only earned him a dedicated fan base but also placements in television and commercials, making Barns Courtney a resonant voice in the contemporary music scene.
