Nashville queer-country trio featuring Brooke Eden, Chris Housman and Adam Mac will headline the November 8 fundraiser.

The Cowgays didn’t form through label strategy. They came together the way the best country stories do, through friendship, late nights, and a song that hit just right. Adam Mac, Brooke Eden and Chris Housman were already making waves in Nashville’s evolving country scene when a New Year’s Eve performance sparked undeniable chemistry. Individually, they have each carved meaningful space in the genre, from national television appearances and Grand Ole Opry performances to Billboard recognition, viral hits, and sold out hometown shows.

 

Together, The Cowgays transform the stage into a campy western fever dream with fringe, cowhide, bold color, stacked harmonies, and crowd wide singalongs. Equal parts musicianship and theatricality, their forthcoming album blends humor, heartbreak, protest, pride, and plenty of rhinestones, proving country music can be rooted in tradition while boldly expanding who gets to tell the story.
