Adobe And Teardrops Podcast


Sep 11, 2019

Hello! I recently wrote an article on The Boot about the history of queer country music! There’s so much more than I wrote about -- and even many more artists than I’m including on this episode. 

If you read my blog or listen to this podcast, you know I’m not great at tact. So I’ll also include the spicier takes that didn’t make the cut since it’s an article -- not an op-ed! 

I cannot stress enough that these opinions are all my own. 

For more background on the modern queer country community, see this article from Wide Open Country.
