Interview

Jessye DeSilva is prepping another album and is fundraising, community-style. Much like Adeem the Artist’s queer country barnraising (as they described it on a previous Rainbow Rodeo episode), Jessye is fundraising via Venmo, Ca$hApp, PayPal, and album preorders. After reading our interview, you’re gonna want to see that album made? Emo/punk/queer Americana? What are you waiting for! Give Jessye all your money here!

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.
