JAY BRANNAN [NETTWERK RECORDS]
This dreamboat (and NYC based singer/songwriter and Shortbus actor) with the honey-dipped vocals has been an online star for a good while now, using his MySpace and YouTube profiles to build a dedicated following. So it’s no surprise that a complete album of sensual acoustic songs is now available for an iTunes download.
Openly gay, Jay sings songs about same-sex love, speaking directly to his audience in a language they understand: the telling words of queer passion. He’s ever so cheeky with his interpretation of bent romance, and poetically slips in the F-bomb more than Gordon Ramsay on a bad day. Songs like ‘I Wanna Be a Housewife’, ‘Half-Boyfriend’ and ‘American Idol’ will have you smiling stupidly like a lovestruck teenager, wishing that Jay’s love was all yours. It’s mine.
