Pride Month is just around the corner starting in June, and here to help soundtrack the celebrations is XPN’s month of special programming featuring LGBTQ+ voices.
Starting things off on Sunday, June 2nd from 1 PM to 5 PM, DJ Robert Drake hosts the annual Out Loud! show, a four-hour special of community-building, revolutionary anthems from queer artists from the 70s to now. Hear the songs that inspired people to come out through the decades.
