Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson. Before they were household names, these budding legends called Sue's Nashville apartment-lovingly dubbed the "Boar's Nest"-home. Sue's place was an intimate staging ground where a new breed of singer-songwriters-wounded souls, wayward upstarts-would spur each other on to tap into something bigger, realer. For Sue Brewer, the ask at each night's guitar pull would never change: "Make me hurt." The response would ignite a musical revolution. Brewer shaped the sound and soul of country music as we know it today, despite never picking up an instrument herself. Enter The Boar's Nest and discover the true, untold story of Sue Brewer and the dawn of Nashville's outlaw country movement. Brought to life in vivid detail, this Audible Original stars Emmy-, Grammy-, and Golden Globe-nominated actress/singer Mandy Moore (This Is Us, Dr. Death, A Walk to Remember) as Sue Brewer. Emmy winner Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Bear, Girls) as the freewheeling Shel Silverstein and a full ensemble cast round out the storytelling. Richly woven with music, friendship, and Sue's indomitable spirit, The Boar's Nest is an extraordinary portrayal of the outlaw country movement, told in all its raw, bold, and soulful beauty. Come on in, the door's open. ©2024 Fresh Produce Media, LLC (P)2024 Audible Originals, LLC. See less
