In Their Words: “‘Kentucky Blue’ is a universal feeling that we’ve all felt at one point or another. Hardship and loss — whether it is of a person, a goal, or even a dream — is inescapable. It happens to every one of us. I think right now the country music community is feeling more Kentucky Blue than ever with the loss of Loretta Lynn and Leslie Jordan. Loretta Lynn paved a path for female artists like no other before her, and Leslie carved out a lane for the LGBTQ community to be seen and respected in the country music format. I hope ‘Kentucky Blue’ brings comfort to other people like it does to me.” — Brit Taylor
