Music Video Premiere: LGBTQ Folk Musician Kristen Ford Releases Heartfelt Music Video: “I Want You in My Corner”
Kristen Ford is an LGBTQ multi-instrumentalist based in Nashville, Tennessee who prior to COVID-19 performed over 100 shows per year to bring her music to her fans around the globe. She just released her new music video for “I Want You in My Corner”.
“The song was recorded very minimally, just acoustic guitar and vocals. We were trying to be as venerable as possible,” mentions Ford.
“The video plays on the strings that connect all of us: strangers, lovers, musical collaborators. It was a very queer video to make. We had a lesbian director, bisexual co-star, and me! Kayce actually played on the track as well so it was fun to do multiple dimensions of creation together in this way."
Kristen Ford has performed at Pride festivals nationwide alongside Betty Who, Billy Gilman, Troye Sivan and Melissa Ferrick. Inspired by a DIY ethos, an inability to commit to one instrument and crazy love for music, her time in Nashville has resulted in background roles on CMT’s “Nashville” many co-writes, playing country drums on lower Broadway, lead guitar at Exit/In, writer/publisher for SESAC, college representation with NACA and featured speaker at CDBaby DIY Conference. She has run several half marathons to raise money for girls rock camps, frequently travels to Spanish speaking countries and hopes to someday visit outer space, the true final frontier for this fearless, genre-bending babe.
