Pride Essentials

Pride Essentials

LGTBQ+ artists haven’t always been as visible as they are today, but that doesn’t mean they weren’t always there—and always a vital part of pop music and the cultural fabric. As we gather (separately) to celebrate a virtual Pride this year, what better place to start than with this decades-spanning survey of queer musicians. Featuring tracks from the ’60s to the present, this is music as varied and diverse as the people who made it. If you hear something you like, add it to your library.
