Review

Queen Esther’s remarkable voice and musical range was on full and splendid display at her album-release show here at Joe’s Pub in early August. She performed her original songs that weave together jazz, blues, gospel, country, and rock ’n roll and added brilliant covers of Billie Holiday and Queen.

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.
