Friday, 31st March is Trans Day of Visibility. It’s a day for celebrating trans pride and recognising the achievements of trans and gender diverse people and communities. At Music Feeds, many trans and gender diverse individuals are among our favourite contemporary Australian musicians. At the bottom of the page, you’ll find links to a range of recent coverage of said musicians.
We’ve also put together a playlist that features many of our favourite trans and gender diverse Australian artists. The playlist is by no means a ranking or some attempt to stir up competition between gender diverse artists, and nor is it a comprehensive overview of the many trans and gender diverse musicians at work around Australia. It’s simply a way of spreading awareness about some of the most vital music being made in Australia today.
