Saturday Night Live concluded its 41st season with a bang last night, with dynamic Portlandia star and SNL alum Fred Armisen gracing the stage alongside musical guest Courtney Barnett. The Melbourne, Australia based singer-songwriter was in top form, as she and her band performed “Nobody Really Cares If You Don't Go to the Party” and “Pedestrian at Best” from her universally applauded 2015 debut album Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit. If you haven’t discovered the undeniable charms of Barnett’s songs already, let this serve as your impetus to explore her music further.
