Queer people need queer music. Not want, NEED. As a people who are often told they don’t belong, are wrong, and are by artists who we can marginalized in industry and society, hearing music crafted by artists with relatable stories and experiences is an important aspect of our lives. And the holidays are no different.
And we have music! It just doesn’t receive the attention, air play or respect it deserves. So we put together a playlist of over 150 song from artists hailing from all around the world. There are old time classics, classics with a twist and original creations from the queer, LGBTQ perspective.
Check out the sample of tracks below and then dive into the full playlist. Know an LGBTQ artist that should be on the list? Let us know. There’s room for all!
