Review

Queen Esther’s remarkable voice and musical range was on full and splendid display at her album-release show here at Joe’s Pub in early August. She performed her original songs that weave together jazz, blues, gospel, country, and rock ’n roll and added brilliant covers of Billie Holiday and Queen.

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.
