Broken Horses with Brent Love
Manage episode 435163005 series 3324856
This book isn’t about celebrity. It’s about queer heritage. And passing it on.
Today we meet Brent Love and we’re talking about the book that saved his life: Broken Horses by Brandi Carlile.
Brent Love is the author of the memoir Leap which debuted in June 2024. He is also the host/producer of the podcasts Hope Works: A Surrogacy and You and Me and Everyone We Know. Brent currently resides in Hawaii with his family.
In Broken Horses, Brandi Carlile takes readers through the events of her life that shaped her very raw art--from her start at a local singing competition where she performed Elton John's "Honky Cat" in a bedazzled white polyester suit, to her first break opening for Dave Matthews Band, to many sleepless tours over fifteen years and six studio albums, all while raising two children with her wife, Catherine Shepherd.
