Feature in Country Queer: Karen & the Sorrows Album Art Collab

Country music, if nothing else, has a deep sense of its history. This nostalgic bent for the past helps preserve incredible traditions, but it also gives the genre an inherent conservatism. It’s also a history shaped by what was commercially palatable in the latter half of the 20th century — which means that many voices were either sanitized or left out altogether. On Karen and the Sorrows Guaranteed Broken Heart, Karen Pittleman carefully wove elements of queer history into the country album, asserting queer people’s place in country music.
