Queer Joy Part 1: "Be Yourself" Featuring Papa Molly, JayceJanae, Boy Bowser, Kamerin [#273]

Author: Homoground October 7, 2022 Duration: 23:15

We are thrilled to finally introduce Queer Joy, a new podcast series by Homoground featuring queer-identified artists sharing what queer joy means to them with their words and music! 


Queer Joy was created as a response to the lack of positive representation of the queer experience in popular media. Over the summer, Homoground asked artists to share their experiences with queer joy by using their own words and their own music. 


We received beautiful, vulnerable, and thoughtful pieces from musicians all over the world. Homoground is incredibly grateful to everyone who submitted. Your voices brought Queer Joy to life!


We danced, we cried, and we’re honored to release Part One: Be Yourself.


Listen to anthems celebrating the process of being comfortable with who you are from Papa Molly, JayceJanae, Boy Bowser, and Kamerin


Our wonderful Patreon supporters will have access to extra tracks submitted by the artists along with some extended interviews.


For this series we’ve partnered with Spaces, and have created our own Space for you to share whatever brings you Queer Joy with others.
