Episode description
Brandy Clark and Brandi Carlile are both gay Americana and Country artists from Washington State. The two have teamed up on Brandy Clark’s new solo album with Carlile on production credits. Emily Fox caught up with Brandy Clark to talk about the record, her Tony award winning musical, songwriting for other country stars and gay representation in country music.
“What went along with being an artist, I just didn’t think I could ever really be. One of those things being that I was openly gay and I just didn’t see a lot of space for that in commercial country music. . . and right about the time I thought ‘that’ll never happen,’ boom, I got the opportunity to make a record,” Clark says.
