'Cortney Dixon is South Shields answer to Blondie with her fun garage punk pop’-Chris Hawkins, BBC 6 Music.
Cortney Dixon is an artist, producer, songwriter and guitarist from the coastal town of South Shields in the North of England. It’s from this post industrial pasture that she propels herself as an entirely uplifting and unique force of nature. Cortney has written, recorded and produced a slick 6 track EP in her studio in Newcastle, which deftly blends her down to earth punky DIY roots with a well crafted aspirational pop glamour. Second single out March 28th, written for Cortney's best friend after losing a loved one. The full EP out in September, complete with an artfully inspired limited run of vinyl records, cuts with ease through garage rock, fuzzy indie & fizzy pop with a hook filled charm and high energy verve. Cortney’s style doesn’t stop at sound, it oozes through every visual - from forward thinking DIY fashion to self-produced music videos. Her live shows bring it all together, supporting the likes of Johnny Marr. Her magnetic charm shines on stage amongst her gritty guitar licks. This fiercely creative artist has built a world for herself where anything can happen.
