Courtney Love at Paris Fashion Week on Jan. 26, 2023. Edward Berthelot/Getty Images Two months after declaring herself “Geese curious,” and one month after upgrading her status to “Geese-blossoming-appreciation,” Courtney Love has taken the plunge into full-fledged, unapologetic Geese fandom by posting an acoustic cover of their recent single “Au Pays du Cocaine” on her Instagram account.
It’s an incomplete rendition that she sang with Baby Queen, a young singer-songwriter Love has been championing for months, and she still hasn’t learned much of the song beyond the “Like a sailor in a big green boat/You can be free/You can be free, just come home” section, but her affection for the material is quite clear. (The Pomeranian nuzzled up to Love on a couch seems to be enjoying it too.)

In a March update, Love said that Geese frontman Cameron Winter “sounds like a 600-year-old man… in the best way” and that the group were like “Daniel Johnston-meets-Rolling Stones.” “I want to talk a little bit about their fans,” she said. “Their gatekeeping elder millennial troll fans. I love my trolls… but the Geese trolls are like another kettle of fish. I feel like it’s 1990 and I’m trying to impress Sonic Youth again. I’m a cool old lady who likes a band, get off my back.”
The wave of respect from Courtney Love comes at a pretty crazy time for Geese. After years of building buzz around their native New York City, they landed a spot on Saturday Night Live in January, a slot on the Coachella lineup, along with other major festivals around the world, and even accusations that their success was somehow due to a “psyop” by a social media marketing firm.
