It’s been seven years since Courtney Hadwin first grabbed the world’s attention with her jaw-dropping America’s Got Talent audition at just 13 years old.
Since then, she’s been quietly building her sound, sharpening her songwriting, and living through the kind of real-life experiences that shape an artist’s voice.
Now, she’s ready to take the spotlight again—with her debut album “Little Miss Jagged” dropping on September 12, 2025.
The album kicks off with its powerful lead single, “You Only Love Me When I Lie”—a raw and soulful blues track that shows off the voice that made her famous.
Listen to her new single below.
“Little Miss Jagged” is a bold first record, bursting with Courtney’s fearless energy. It mixes gritty rock, throwback Motown, edgy punk, smooth funk, and soaring ballads—all tied together by her one-of-a-kind vocals.
She channels the spirit of legends like Janis Joplin, Aretha Franklin, and Tina Turner, but brings her own fresh twist that makes her stand out today.
Fans got an early taste of her new sound with her recent single “Spellbound”, and now “You Only Love Me When I Lie” cranks up the excitement.
The song shows the full range of Courtney’s vocal power—starting soft and sultry, then exploding into a fierce emotional release. It’s a track that proves she’s not just singing—she’s telling a story with every note.
To celebrate the upcoming album, Courtney will hit the stage for a special London headline show at The Fiddler’s Elbow on May 30th.
Fans who’ve seen her recent Live At Metropolis video series already know what to expect: high-voltage performances and all-out passion, especially during explosive takes on her tracks “Jagged” and “Monsters”.
From a young age, Courtney was inspired by powerhouse performers like Janis Joplin, James Brown, Little Richard, and Tina Turner—not just for their vocals, but for the energy they brought to the stage. And today, that same fire burns in her performances, where she pours every bit of herself into each song. With Little Miss Jagged, Courtney Hadwin isn’t just making an album—she’s making a statement.
