OUT NOW ON BLONDE MEDICINE
"Ali Clayton is as funny and as clever as they come, her humor is warm and relatable and feels like it's coming from someone you grew up with." - Roy Wood Jr.
NEW YORK, NY - May 31, 2024 - Blonde Medicine is excited to announce today’s release of Ali Clayton’s debut comedy album Country Queer, available digitally everywhere comedy is streamed or downloaded, and on vinyl on Blonde Medicine and Bandcamp.
After working in comedy for 15 years, Ali put together a set that tells her story as a member of a very Southern family from rural North Carolina, a special ed kid, a lesbian, an alcoholic, and a white girl who started her comedy career in the South Side of Chicago.
“Country Queer is a love letter to little Ali about embracing and loving your authentic self and never forgetting where you come from.” Says Ali Clayton. “I’m country and I’m queer and I’m proud to be both.” Her comedy aims to help humanize and connect Southerners and queer folks everywhere.
Country Queer is live. The album is available in full everywhere comedy is streamed or sold. Tonight there will be an Album Release Show at Union Hall with Ali Clayton, Ely Kreimdahl (Shame Spiral Podcast) and Kenice Mobley (The Tonight Show).
