“Music has been my center of joy,” says Fancy Hagood. “I was singing way before I was having full-blown conversations. I don’t know if it comes from another life — a previous life — but from my earliest memory, music is the thing that makes me feel centered. It’s the thing that makes me feel like myself. I love to sing.”

Gay Ole Opry

Why queer country music? Because sometimes you love a culture that doesn’t love you back. And when everyone came to the first Gay Ole Opry in April of 2011 in all their country finery, we knew we weren’t alone. We do it because we love the music and want to build a community to support queer country musicians.
