Review

Country singer Ty Herndon was flying on top of the world — until he suddenly crashed. The top-charting artist had been forced into a sham marriage by his record label, and the pressures of the spotlight and hiding his sexuality led Herndon to a spiral of addiction. After being arrested for indecent exposure while on a three-day bender, Herndon found himself choosing between life and death. Last year’s album <em>Jacob</em> marked Herndon’s triumphant return to mainstream country and with the recent release of the deluxe version of the album, Herndon reminds us our stories don’t always end with a neat little bow.

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.
