PREMIERE: Jack Boaz's "cowboy" Is For Line Dancing at the Club
Jack Boaz gives us a thumping line dancing banger with his delightfully queer new single "cowboy"
Just in time for Pride weekend, Jack Boaz blesses us with a country-techno track that must be bumped at the club: "cowboy." And good news – you can line dance to it, too.
Boaz is a producer and composer, is readying the release of his EP of transmasc club bangers: [insert] boy. He tells us:
“cowboy” came from blending from my love and years long study of American folk fiddle styles with the gay campy music of my dreams. It was inspired by my years living in the American Southwest and the resurgence of queer line-dancing spaces all over the country. I find line dancing to be a similar culture to that of folk music circles that I have been involved with in the past years.
The spaces are intergenerational and community focussed, dances are passed on from person to person in what can almost be called an "aural" tradition. 8 non-binary and trans choreographers from The Albuquerque Outlaws have collaborated to create an original line dance for "cowboy" and we hope to bring the dance to many other queer line dancing spaces.
