Cry Club

From grassroots festivals and DIY releases to the top of the charts, sold-out arenas and even Eurovision, the new age of Australian music is unapologetically queer.

The energetic lineup included You Am I performing their Spinal Tap tribute show, DZ Deathrays, Cry Club and a DJ set from Eleven & Denim.

Cry Club lead the inaugural event, with acts like Those Who Dream, Blake Williams, Wolfjay and many more on the bill.

Each week we track down the best new music and curate it into our 'Hit List' playlist for all our readers to enjoy. Today, we've selected our top picks to celebrate the songs that stood out in the crowd.

From Kim Petras’ historic Grammys win to Boygenius’ indie-rock superstardom, 2023 has been a huge year for LGBTQIA+ music fans. Whether in the mainstream or the underground, queer music is thriving and unapologetically so. Ellie Robinson explores how it happened (and why this is just the beginning).

"What if Paul Stanley or David Lee Roth were… lesbian?"

"Seeing how the narrative and music were translated gave us a new kind of expressive feedback loop."
