We’re always on the hunt for great new music and intriguing artists.
In this week’s edition we look at new videos from John Duff, Will Young, Kylie Minogue, Diplo, Orville Peck, Los Bitchos and Balu Brigada.
From disco showtunes to country disco mash ups, psych rock guitars jams and indie dance goodness, we traverse many genres.
John Duff – Be Your Girl
There’s no hiding John Duff’s background in musical theatre. It’s like they had disco in the 1940s.
In today’s modern world, when so many queer artists are releasing authentically queer music, I thought it would be fun to retroactively go back and design a legacy artist that never got a chance to exist,” Duff has said of his tune. “In this song, I’m imagining a classic-that-never-happened from the point of view of a queer artist-that-never-was.”
Orville Peck & Kylie Minogue & Diplo
The trio shared this new tune at WeHo Pride last weekend, and now it’s out! It’s an instantly catchy sing-along. The tune appears on Orville’s Peck’s new album Stampede Vol 1. Let’s hope this get a full video.
Will Young – Midnight
British singer Will Young leapt to fame in 2002 on the UK series Pop Idol, it was the show that inspired Australian Idol and American Idol. He publicly came out shortly after winning the competition, pre-empting a story from a tabloid newspaper. This tune is from his forthcoming ninth album Light It Up.
Los Bitchos – Don’t Change
Instrumental girl group Los Bitchos has shared this slice of summer pop goodness. The track is taken from their second album Talkie Talkie.
Balu Brigada – So Cold
This is quite the indie rock banger. The duo of brothers Henry and Pierre Beasley hail from New Zealand and have been labeled a band to watch in 2024.
