Review

Country Risque have been working hard to make the Bay Area's country scene just a little bit queerer. As much as I enjoyed their EP Doe-Eyed Boys and Loverboy Saints, this taste of the band's live show is even better.

Country Universe

The longest-running country music blog, Country Universe was founded on and remains committed to the fact-based notion that country music has never been the exclusive purview of artists who are straight, white, Christian, Southern, and (mostly) men. When focusing on either the genre's history or its present, CU takes a "big tent" approach to the broader country universe and believes that a foundation of empathy makes country music an essential part of our shared popular culture.
