Posted January 19Jan 19 I'm new to radio playlists, but I noticed recently that Radio 6 recently had a bunch of trans and nonbinary artists playlisted, Ethel Cain, Lauren Auder, jasmine.4.t, Ezra Furman, (trans women) I. Jordan, Kae Tempest (trans masculine nonbinary) as well as a member of Geese being a trans woman, and a member of The Last Dinner Party being nonbinary, which is amazing to see!I'm wondering what other trans and nonbinary artists you know got played? And also if any trans/nb acts have been playlisted on Radio 1, I know The Blessed Madonna and salute did (both nb).
January 19Jan 19 They also playlisted Jacob Alon ( nonbinary) last year, and have also playlisted Mykki Blanco, Arca, SOPHIE, Janelle Monáe and Christine and the Queens in the recent past. I unfortunately don't know about R1, I'd have thought that they've playlisted Christine and the Queens as “Tilted” went Top 20, but you can find everything 6Music playlisted last year here.I have managed to have 6Music on in the office for many years now, I love how diverse the music they play is and have discovered so much music through doing so. I also used to enjoy it when Mary Anne Hobbs was doing the mid-morning show, as it was always interesting to see the reactions from everyone when she started playing some banging techno at 10.30 am. *.*
January 19Jan 19 Some others that come to mind for me are Lava La Rue on 6 Music, and Sam Smith & Ashnikko for Radio 1 - all non binary.
