A playlist celebrating the outstanding Queer & BIPOC Country Music, Bluegrass, & Americana Storytellers who keep our boots breaking & our hearts aching.
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.
The SongData Project explores the potential of using discographic and biographic data to learn more about how popular music genres form, develop, and evolve over time.
