Pearl-clutching talking heads fret over “wholesome country music” after Musgraves asks that “somebody fucking do something” to end gun violence
Beto O’Rourke. Maren Morris, Brothers Osborne, and Margo Price have all raised their voices in support of gun control too, as have Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and Eric Church, poking holes in Earhardt’s suggestion that it’s the “younger country singers coming onboard” who are to blame.
Naturally, there couldn’t be a conversation about country music and politics without someone bringing up the Dixie Chicks. It’s Starnes who checks off that cliché here, wrongly asserting that Musgraves has already been “Dixie Chickified” — his butchered attempt at the Music Row shorthand for having one’s music pulled from country radio.
“When you’re talking about country music you don’t want to talk about going after people’s guns,” Starnes warns Musgraves. “That’s like bringing store-bought chicken to Wednesday night church supper.”. At least Earhardt claims she loves and has downloaded a whole two Musgraves songs. “‘Butterflies’ and ‘Rainbows’ [sic],” she says. Good choices, to be sure, but might we suggest “High Horse”?
