Description
Bright Light Bright Lights Fun City is a pop-prolific musical map nodding to disco, electronica, boogie, balladry and even musical theatre.
Opener Touchy, a duet with Australian queer auteur Brandon MacLean, Rod Thomas imagines is like being in the Moulin Rouge when a troupe of drag kings come out wearing feather boas and top hats. The record shimmies further into the twilight, tagging a compendium guestlist of artists spelling out the past and future of the LGBTQ+ experience. It is a record about honouring our responsibility to one another in sketchy, antagonistic times.
Bright Light Bright Light has been a staple of the international LGBTQ+ music scene for over ten years, having released three prior albums and touring as both a solo artist and has support alongside pop royalty like Elton John, Cher, Erasure, Ellie Goulding and The Scissor Sisters. He also collaborated with Elton on his 2016 banger All In The Name which he also performed with the music legend on The Graham Norton Show.
