Gay Musicians
Okay, I know this thread is totally THE WORST and wrong in ways, but I just want to know which indie musicians are gay out there, other than the ones I know.
I say this because, as a closeted gay male, I get really inspired by gay musicians in the indie-rock "genre" (if you can call that a genre). It just is nice to have a gay person to somewhat look up to, you know?
And plus, then I can finally interpret some love song lyrics that aren't only about straight relationships (not hating on those relationships, but I want some representation here).
Anyway, I know that Jonsi from Sigur Ros is gay (how funny that their music played in our intolerant church today, to make the pastor's speech sound more impacting).
I know Kele Okereke is gay.
I know Ed Droste of Grizzly Bear is.
I know Final Fantasy (Owen Pallett) is.
Bradford Cox...
Isn't one of the main guys of Broken Social Scene, too?
Umm, Tegan and Sara!
Antony Hegarty (well, I guess he isn't technically, if he is a woman, but he deserves to be mentioned).
So...yeah. Sorry for making this thing, I just figured I'd bite the bullet though and make it.
Also, I really hope M83 is.
