Following impressive sets at Electric Picnic this summer, the face of Irish LBTQIA+ music SexyTadhg has released their politically charged debut EP ‘Sexy’. Blending big band jazz with theatrical soul and pop flair the 6-track collection dives deep into the dualities of queer experience – celebrating joy, love, and empowerment while also confronting struggle, stigma, and the need for change.
The record captures the grand scale and visceral energy of Tadhg’s live performances with lush production and expansive instrumentation. “Sexy is an introduction to the persona, the drag, the power that allows me to own a stage. The armour that has protected Tadhg. These songs are moments of self discovery that have strengthened me as a person and now lay the groundwork for my future. Recorded over the last two years, with countless collaborators, musicians, vocalists, brass, strings, it’s orchestral, bold, beautiful, truthful, honest, and above all…SEXY.”
Sexy Tadhg is set to appear at Other Voices Cardigan in Wales followed by several Irish live dates in November.
