We had the pleasure of interviewing Brandon Stansell over Zoom video.

Seven years after the release of his debut single, singer/songwriter Brandon Stansell has come to occupy a unique niche within country music.

He has been an ardent advocate for the queer community and the advancement of LGBTQ artists in the still widley conservative genre. In 2018, Brandon’s music video for his single “Hometown” was the first LGBTQ-themed video to ever premiere on CMT. It was also named one of Rolling Stone’s 10 Best Country Videos of the Year. In 2020, he released Hurt People (the title track featuring Cam) - a heartbreaking EP about his own family’s response to his coming out.

The EP also served as the soundtrack to his documentary, Three Chords And A Lie, where the Tennessee-born artist lays bare his struggles with his Southern Baptist family as he prepares for his first hometown show. The documentary was produced by OutTV and Leslie Jordan and premiered at OutFest in Los Angeles in August 2020.

Brandon’s newest project, This Must Be The Place, released September 2021 via PEG Records and Warner Music Group/ADA is an amalgam of the tear-inducing country music of his previous efforts and a compelling pop vibrancy of hope. This Must Be The Place, the LP, which includes the original six tracks plus four additional tracks was released June, 24 2022.

Super special episode of the STP Podcast featuring Brandon Stansell! Brandon is an openly gay country music singer/songwriter/artist! He has a really incredible story and is passionate about being a source of hope and inspiration for people that are in similar situations as him. He recently was part of a super powerful documentary called, "Three Cords and a Lie" that documents his life and tells the story of coming out in a Southern Baptist Christian household. It's a gut-wrenching story that way too many people experience. Brandon is definitely a light and a great example of all things STP. His music is amazing and he is doing so much for the LGBTQIA+ community. He supports organizations like Launch Pad that support kids that are displaced for coming out. Amazing story, amazing conversation! Thank you for the work you do Brandon!
