Review

Julian Talamantez Brolaski understands rhythm. As a poet, their grasp of sound, rhythm, and silence permeates the traditional country sounds of It’s Okay, Honey. Brolaski was a guest a few months ago on the Rainbow Rodeo podcast, but as the Earth slowly wends its way towards the completion of another orbit (by our calendar) it’s worth a return to their album It’s Okay, Honey — an album that is as much about endings as it is about what comes after them.

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.
