Interview

Julian Talamantez Brolaski is a poet and country crooner but, above all else, is a careful curator of traditional country music.

Brolaski was also on the ground floor of Brooklyn’s queer country scene in the 2010s. They’re too modest to say it, but that makes them an integral part of the current queer country movement.

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.
