So to wrap up Pride month at least for the north eastern United States here’s my musical tribute. All gay artists to my knowledge. What inspired this is my Amazon music player – it was on a roll playing a bunch of different gay artists.
Let’s start with Bronski Beat.

Then of course there’s Modern Rocketry.
Homosexuality:

Then of course there’s:
A Little Respect
