On Saturday, Holly G.’s efforts will be on display when the Black Opry she later founded holds a live performance at the North Carolina Museum of Art in Winston-Salem. Holly G., 35, describes the Black Opry, which has no central location, as a collective that connects Black country artists to gigs nationwide. Since its founding in 2021, the collective has performed at Luck Reunion, held on the Texas ranch of country legend Willie Nelson, and launched a record label, Black Opry Records, in Oct. 2024.

Gay Ole Opry

Why queer country music? Because sometimes you love a culture that doesn’t love you back. And when everyone came to the first Gay Ole Opry in April of 2011 in all their country finery, we knew we weren’t alone. We do it because we love the music and want to build a community to support queer country musicians.
