Review

You might not associate country music with New Orleans, but Loose Cattle is part of the Crescent City's bubbling scene. After all, New Orleans is the crossroads of all the cultures have built this nation, and it stands to reason that country gets transformed into something bigger and more robust here. With Someone's Monster, Loose Cattle uses the most American of art forms to interrogate our uniquely American evils. Someone's Monster investigates how we become monsters – whether those othered by the "majority," or how the "majority" turns into oppressors.

Country Universe

The longest-running country music blog, Country Universe was founded on and remains committed to the fact-based notion that country music has never been the exclusive purview of artists who are straight, white, Christian, Southern, and (mostly) men. When focusing on either the genre's history or its present, CU takes a "big tent" approach to the broader country universe and believes that a foundation of empathy makes country music an essential part of our shared popular culture.
