Chip Pons’ new book, “Dearly Departed” is shadows and spice and everything nice. A tale as old as time, Levi the small-town florist meet cutes and falls in love with local mysterious funeral director Hayden. It’s obviously a fairy tale because who ever heard of gay funeral directors and florists…oh also, Hayden is actually mythical…
To wrap up Pride Month, I wanted to share the new EP Winter’s Over, by one of my favorite trans artists, Miki Ratsula. The overall chill-pop vibe of the EP is positivity and optimism. When winter’s over, it’s time to enjoy and look forward to better times. This fabulous four-track EP offers time to love…
Jules Paymer’s new four-track EP, Trouble, is an evolution in Jules’ songwriting and sound. This EP still has a hard edge and emotional trauma-dump vibe but they’ve matured and it has a feeling of coming out on the brighter side of things. The music is lighter, softer and more pop sounding than anything in Jules’…
Smooth, sexy, and steamy is the vibe of Yehra’s new EP, Inner Feelings. This four-track EP’s going to make your inner feelings want to turn into touchy feelings. The vocals are breathy and the sound is classic romance. Think old school Sophia Loren on the prowl around Rome. There’s no fast tracks here, it’s all…
Any regulars here know it’s not often a male diva hits my radar. However, Fedge’s new EP, Through It All, is exactly what I needed this Pride Month. Fedge’s five-song EP is the perfect mix of purpose and addictive pop beats. “Can’t You See” is the universal story of the need of love, “Wish You…
“Orange Is The New Black” was my introduction to Laverne Cox. Sure, I love a good sleepover plot line, but not when it’s in a women’s prison, after a few seasons I lost interest. However, my interest in Laverne grew as I saw her doing press and speaking out about trans rights. The trans community…
I’m not a murder mystery sort of gay and don’t like working hard when it comes to my entertainment, please don’t make me figure out who did it. If I’m thinking that hard, I better be getting paid. Hell, even at my job, I only pretend to think that hard. However, “The Disaster Gay Detective…
Light Bird first hit my radar thanks to a Kickstarter campaign to get her new album, See Her, made. That’s my favorite site to discover indie artists and help get their music out into the world…unfortunately, right now it’s a transphobic world. In my gay opinion, the best way to fight this hatred is by…
Wednesday Eve Plumb came to the First Congregational Church in Madison, Connecticut thanks to my favorite indie bookstore, RJ Julia Booksellers, to sign and discuss her autobiography “Happiness Included.” How could I not want to go see “The Brady Bunch’s” Jan Brady speak in person. You know Eve must be a big deal to get…
Last month my partner and I went to the Reggatabar Jazz Club in Cambridge, Massachusetts to see Lenka in concert. I’ve seen her a bunch and her shows are always perfection. Her set-list spanned her career with a few new songs in the mix. After the show, she met fans at the merch table. When…
