Courtney Keil released her debut album The Good Kind last year and since then the singles ‘All About You’, ‘Nothin’ Like a Sure Bet’ and her latest, ‘Worn In’, which she recorded with Gina Jeffreys. From her first single, 'I Just Wanna Hold You', Keil has marked herself as an engaging country-pop artist with a knack for creating memorable songs, and 'the latest is no'Worn In' is no different.

Courtney first met Jeffreys and her husband, producer Rod McCormack, in early 2020, right before the pandemic hit. She connected instantly with Jeffreys and McCormack went on to produce The Good Kind. Now they've all worked together again on 'Worn In'.

‘Worn In’ was written by Keil with her regular collaborators Sam Gay and Templeton Thompson. It wasn’t written as a duet but Keil has said that, ‘The more I came back to the song, I couldn't help but hear a strong female duet voice on it. The beautiful Gina Jeffreys, who of course is my mentor and dear friend agreed to collaborate with me on the track.’

In addition to writing and performing, Keil teaches singing at Jeffreys’s music academy, where she works with aspiring vocalists of all ages and skill levels. And on a personal note, Keil recently became engaged to during a sweet surprise proposal, and is also looking forward to welcoming a Golden Retriever puppy.

We spoke about the meaning behind ‘Worn In’, about Keil’s decision to go all-in with music in 2020, as well her personal news and upcoming performance at the Gympie Music Muster on 22 August as well as her own headline show at Gosford RSL (NSW) on 20 September.
