‘I can't get enough of Cortney Dixon 'Stop This Party'... I really, really like this track. It's got hints of Haim and Wolf Alice. The indie guitar pop I just needed tonight on the show.’ - Gemma Bradley, BBC Radio 1 Introducing.

 

“I’m getting proper Strokes-y vibes on the guitars on that track. Obviously a future indie anthem and a half!’ - Emily Pilbeam, Tom Robinson’s BBC 6 Music Mixtape

 

Cortney Dixon, artist, producer and guitarist from South Shields arrived with a bang last summer with her first four singles receiving support from Gemma Bradley’s BBC Radio 1 Introducing show, Tom Robinson’s BBC 6 Music Mixtape and BBC Introducing in the NE. Cortney’s music has been featured on playlists including Spotify’s ‘New Music Friday’, ‘Proper Belters’, ‘Transistor’, ’That Indie Girl’, Apple Music’s ‘New in Pop’ & ‘New in Indie’ and Amazon Music’s ‘Breakthrough UK’ and ‘Best New Bands’. The whirlwind start also saw a sync placement in the last ever episode of ‘Neighbours’. Cortney continues the release momentum with her first single of 2023, Stop This Party released 3rd March.

Cortney's distinct sound draws influences from the likes of PJ Harvey, HAIM and Blondie. It’s alt-pop powered by her love of indie-rock. Big, fuzzed-up, guitar-driven bangers showcase her high-flying vocals with a heady mix of stories about love, angst and growing up in a working class Northern town.
