After nearly five decades, legendary queer country pioneers Lavender Country return with Blackberry Rose And Other Songs & Sorrows From Lavender Country, a powerful new collection from songwriter Patrick Haggerty. This album spans a lifetime of personal songwriting, with tracks penned from the early 1970s through 2019, chronicling stories of love, resilience, and identity. Haggerty’s distinct voice and raw storytelling continue to break boundaries, resonating strongly in today’s evolving country music landscape.
Blackberry Rose revisits and expands upon the influences that made Lavender Country’s self-titled debut a landmark in American music. With heartfelt anthems like “I Can’t Shake the Stranger Out of You” and the poignant “Lament of a Wyoming Housewife”, this album offers both a tribute to the band’s groundbreaking legacy and a timely reflection on enduring struggles and triumphs. This is a rare and meaningful release, capturing the spirit of a movement that continues to inspire new generations of artists and listeners alike.
