Deep Dive into Queer Country

Dr. Shana Goldin-Perschbacher explores how the country genre has a long-standing, though little-known, queer history. Journeying from the past to the present day.

Part of 6 Music鈥檚 Loud and Proud season - which celebrates LGBTQ+ voices throughout June - Deep Dive Into Queer Country is a documentary exploring how the country genre has a long-standing, though little-known, queer history. Journeying from the past to the present day, the programme will shine a light on the scene鈥檚 radical pioneers, as well as the recent explosion of contemporary LGBTQ+ country artists that are keeping the genre alive. Hosted by writer, pop music professor and queer country expert Dr. Shana Goldin-Perschbacher, the programme will be an empowering hour of music and speech that reflects on how country music connects with the queer experience, the challenges faced by LGBTQ+ artists in the industry, the rise in diversity and representation as well as music鈥檚 unifying and storytelling power. The documentary will feature interviews and archive from Patrick Haggerty of Lavender Country, k.d. lang, Lil Nas X, Orville Peck, Amythyst Kiah, Grace Petrie and Tommy Atkins.
