Fancy Hagood & Friends Serve Up ‘Smothered, Covered & Fried’ EP

/by

Singer-songwriter Fancy Hagood released his newest EP Smothered, Covered & Fried today (June 5).

The project finds Hagood and some friends singing some of his favorite songs. She Returns From War and Jamie Wyatt join Hagood on “Hell On Hells,” TJ Osborne lends his voice to “From This Moment On,” The Kentucky Gentlemen join in on “Better Man” and Brooke Eden sings on “Even If It Breaks Your Heart.”

“Smothered, Covered & Fried is one of my favorite projects I’ve ever worked on,” says Hagood. “Getting to collaborate with other queer country artists to put our own spin on songs that everyone is familiar with feels really powerful. This EP is a collective of artists proudly saying that country music is for everyone!”

In addition to the collaborations, the EP includes Hagood’s version of the Stevie Nicks classic, “Landslide.”

I have loved this song as long as I can remember,” says Hagood. “I covered it on Instagram years ago and it brought love into my life for the very first time. That chapter of my life has come to an end, and I wanted to honor the beauty of being loved and loving someone else by putting my own spin on Stevie’s timeless song.

“The lyric ‘I’ve been afraid of changing, cause I built my life around you’ means so much more to me. The opportunity to sail through the changing tides as seasons end and new ones begin feels more and more like a gift. It was a gift to feel loved for the first time.”
