I first discovered Imani Graham and her music when she opened for Marielle Kraft last year at a show here in Connecticut and I’ve been a fan since. I’m also a fan of the show Heartstopper on Netflix so it was the perfect pairing when they used “Just Stay For Once” by Imani in a…
Bonjour! Bienvenue a Quebec! This week my partner and I decided to road trip it to Quebec City because it’s roughly a seven-hour drive north of us, it wouldn’t be any hotter than Connecticut and it would feel like a whole new country…well it is, but Canada doesn’t really count. All I knew about Quebec…
“Good”, according to dictionary.com, is defined as satisfactory in quality. In my gay opinion, the only thing good about Marielle Kraft’s new EP is the title, the music itself is beyond satisfactory, it’s amazing! The four-song EP is half perky beats and half sweet balladry. In each song, Marielle defines “good” for herself. “Something Good”…
Well cross another square off my gay bingo card of life, I met a Spice Girl. Not just any Spice Girl but Ginger Spice, in my gay opinion, the only one worth meeting. To be honest, I’m not a huge Spice Girls fan, but who doesn’t love “Wannabe.” When Geri Halliwell went solo with her…
In my gay opinion, the best indie book store in Connecticut is RJ Julia Booksellers in Madison. Wanting to support my fav bookstore and a gay author, I bought my $28.71 ticket for their Cody Rigsby photo-op event that came with a signed copy of his autobiography, “XOXO, Cody.” You know I love my autographed…
This month’s Pride Party is continuing on with the release of The Aces new album, I’ve Loved You For So Long. I had certain expectations when I first listened. I was prepared for some fun pop, like their previous albums, but what The Aces delivered this time is something more alt-rock and mature. To be…
February is the month of love, so the perfect time to celebrate my New Year’s Resolution by taking myself on a monthly date night to a concert at Café 9 (250 State St.) in New Haven, Connecticut. Who knew that when I bought my ticket to see an Imani Graham and Marielle Kraft double bill…
Welcome to CrazyTown! Don’t know where it is? Take a left at the Dairy Queen…yeah, that’s me on the corner in the cow outfit waving a rainbow flag, and it’s just two towns over from Funky Town! Speaking of which, the only style of music Beth Nielsen Chapman doesn’t cover on her new album is…
A queer horror book, sign me up! When I got an email from RJ Julia Booksellers in Madison, Connecticut announced they were having a discussion and book signing with Ryan La Sala for his queer-horror book “The Honeys”, I was all over it. The book blurb described The Honeys themselves as a beautiful and terrifying…
In May I discovered NoSo’s music when they opened for Molly Burch at Space Ballroom here in Connecticut. NoSo’s musical style and sound caught my attention, putting them on my radar, and I’ve been looking forward to the release of their new album, Stay Proud Of Me, ever since. Last week, my wait was finally…
