some basics are troye sivan, girl in red, conan grey, mΓ₯neskin or megan thee stallion, but if you want more niche recommendations, i recommend hatari, mahmood and arca. hatari probably will make it to my spotify wrapped, i've been obsessed in them in the last months

Girl In Red is awesome and last year I also discovered Grant Knoche representing Texas in American Song Contest (American equivalent of Eurovision Song Contest), he is openly bisexual, has a song about coming out called "First Hello" and his other songs are straight up fire as well. And he's very easy on the eyes too, which is definitely a plus ;)

Aside fromΒ  that, there are the usuals that draw a huge gay fan base, such as Cher, Lady Gaga, Britney, and the UK band Steps, all of whom I'm a fan of. And here in Norway we have the openly bisexual singer Sondre Justad, who came out two years ago and gained an even bigger following than he already had. All his music is only in Norwegian unfortunately but you can still listen to it and be able to enjoy it, even if you don't understand a word of what he sings about haha :)

cavetown! they have some songs about being trans that i am OBSESSED with.

if you like rock, may i recommend against me! and the scary bitches?Β 

for pop, all i can think of off the top of my head are dove cameron and hayley kiyoko with the songs "boyfriend" and "girls like girls"

OH! and to add to pop with a pop-rock band, panic at the disco! they legitimately have a song about bisexuality with girls / girls / boys!

and one last one, yungblud. they have plenty of songs about poly relationships, gender noncomformity, and a lot of other things.

I don't really listen to queer artists, most I've found don't make music I enjoy but I do listen to artists that are often linked to queer people (Lemon Demon and Will Wood mostly)

As some have said before musicians like Cavetown and Girl In Red are very important to me as they were also some of the first queer artists I've listened to. Nowadays I'm looking to diversify and I've found some that while I haven't listened to all their songs are worth listening to.

- Jason Kawn

- Big Joanie

- Waste Womxn

- NEO 10Y

- Sister Rosetta Tharpe

- Anitta

- Kali Uchis

- Villano Antillano

I encourage others to add more musicians of color (not meaning this to be back handed as many already mentioned artists still have a special place in my heart for my coming out as a trans man on the ace spectrum and I still listen to some to this day)

I love collecting lesbian musicians! My absolute favorite is Chris Pureka. She is so underrated, hands down one of the best musicians on the market and incredibly down to earth.Β

I recommend looking into John Grant, very unique sound and authentic as hell plus he reminds me of harry from disco elysium

Against me! , chavela vargas and The yellow dress

Against me! songs I like are true trans soul rebel, transgender dysphoria blues, unconditional love and I was a teenage anarchist (punk rock group)

of chavela vargas I really like Paloma negra, Adoro, La llorona, La niΓ±a Isabel, Golondrina viajera... and many more she is costarican/mexican and very lesbian very butch(i dont think she labelled herself but well, it was another time) she did things only men were allowed to do at the time and girls loved her and she felt the songs deeply and idk idk it is beautiful truly beautiful

The yellow dress I dont know much about them but songs I like are Tummy in the blood and A complete list of fears ages 5 to 28

Like fable and sailor are one of my faves she's perfectΒ 

Another artist that's great is surely girl in red I loved her when IΒ  thought I was straight(which I wasn'tΒ  AT ALL)Β
