A new offshoot of Country music, termed 'Boyfriend Country' by Billboard magazine, has emerged over the past couple of years. In this episode, James looks at what Boyfriend Country actually is and who its leading lights are. He also examines why songs about the redemptive power of women might well be holding back & hampering female artists in Country music.
Take a listen and let James know how you feel about the rise of this new brand and whether you feel it is a step forward for the genre or whether its time is already done.
