Adam Mac Performs and Discusses His Song “Boy Like Me”

Earlier this year, the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum hosted Country Proud, a country music–focused showcase series from RNBW, a collective of Nashville’s LGBTQ+ performers, songwriters, and musicians. The program featured Country Proud co-founders Emily and Jamie Dryburgh and performers Shelly Fairchild, Angie K, Sonia Leigh, and Adam Mac.

In this clip from the program, Adam Mac performs and discusses the inspiration behind his song, "Boy Like Me." "I was thinking about how hard it must have been for my mom to raise a boy like me," he said. "I've always been over the top and flashy and loud, and she never dimmed my light and always pushed me forward."
