First Openly Gay American Country Music Singer (?)

[lgtenos]

I'm a huge Country music fan, so I'm aware of much news that goes around in that realm. Anyway, this new artist named "Steve Grand" recently released a new song called "All-American Boy." Needless to say, he's openly gay; probably the first openly gay American Country music artist to hit the mainstream. This is a critical point in American Country music history as it has been stigmatized as a predominantly heterosexual genre of music. Regardless, he seems to be getting very positive feedback from the public and continued support from fellow Country music artists. I shall be keeping an eye on this guy (interpret that however you desire).

Saw this on Tumblr.

The consensus seems to be "we like him."

I expect good things from him.

As not entirely a country music fan myself I did happen to find the tune to be a bit catchy. So kudos to him/his producers.
