Maren Morris, a country singer, has spoken about how her political opinions have affected her career in the country music world. She said that after President Trump’s time in office, the atmosphere at country music events became “dicey.”
Morris, known for her song “My Church,” believes that being a songwriter means reflecting real life, which naturally includes politics. She feels she has to stand up for what she believes in, even if it means losing fans. She acknowledged that some people might not like her views and choose not to listen to her music, and she thinks that’s fair.
Morris also mentioned that sticking to your principles can be tough, and artists might lose fans, friends, or even family members along the way. However, she’s grateful that she can still make music and have people come to her shows. She expressed love for her country but also sadness about its current state. Morris sees herself as someone who writes about what she sees and feels, even if it goes against the grain.
