IN PERSON & VIRTUAL
Contemporary country music is finally coming out of the closet. Some of the greatest hits sung by the likes of Willie Nelson, Reba McEntire, Johnny Cash, Blake Shelton and more are the work of gay women writing, producing, and persevering in a traditional, corporate industry that requires most to keep their authentic selves secret or commit career suicide. Author, activist, and filmmaker T.J. Parsell brings their hidden stories, songs, and stunningly beautiful voices to light in this affirming, personal, and sensitively produced documentary. Featuring stellar interviews with Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris, Pam Tillis, Chely Wright, Mary Gauthier, and others, Invisible reveals these talented women and their singular voices at last.
