Country music vocalist Carly Tefft alleges her performances were cancelled by a Cape Cod venue after she sang the national anthem at a Donald Trump rally in April. Tefft was a guest on the Howie Carr Show and spoke out about the incident. The Dennis-based Harvest Gallery called up the singer just five days after her performance and cancelled her future gigs citing “controversy” and that her presence would make their clientele feel “threatened.”

Tefft brings to light how although previously having performed at the restaurant multiple times, the owner used the comparison that her placing on the music schedule was the same as hanging nudity artwork on the wall. Tefft commented that the owner asked if she was a Trump supporter, to which she replied that she only supported God. The owner then cancelled the rest of her scheduled shows.

Speaking of the cancellation, Tefft stated that although it was a new experience for her, she held no resentment. However, she raises the valid point that if the same behaviour extends to her kids or anyone else’s children in the future, it would be unacceptable. The incident highlights the importance of how politics can impact art and business.
