“I wanted to be like the boys that were accepted” - John Grant | Queer the Music

Опубликовано 9 ноября 2024, 15:00

This week on Queer The Music we welcome the great singer songwriter John Grant to talk about his epic song Glacier.

Glacier is the standout track from John's 2013 album 'Pale Green Ghosts' and is about the pain of growing up gay in a hostile environment, which for John was his conservative Methodist upbringing. It’s an emotional tour de force with hauntingly beautiful orchestration and powerful lyrics. We hear about how this song came to exist, his songwriting process and how music helped John find confidence and acceptance.
