Опубликовано 12 ноября 2024, 9:00

Queer The Music not only shines a light on songs by queer artists but also those that have been adopted by the LGBTQ+ community and in this episode we’re celebrating an absolute banger and one that has well and truly been claimed by the queer community - it’s the unbelievably uplifting call to arms ‘Free Yourself’ by Jessie Ware.

Ever since the release of her debut album, ‘Devotion’ in 2012, Jessie Ware has had an army of loyal queer fans and with the release of her last two albums, ‘What’s Your Pleasure?’ and ‘That! Feels Good’, which saw a return to dance music and a foray into disco, her LGBTQ+ fanbase has grown considerably. Now a gay icon herself, 'Free Yourself' is a definite anthem and will undoubtedly be a Pride setlist fixture for years to come.

Tune in to hear about how the song came about, Jessie's creative process and how incredibly important her queer fans are to her.
