!! OMG, new music: Grumpy Truck’s ‘Being Gay Is So Lonely’ !!
BGISL is a song I wrote after my first fling went to shit and I was left alone with a bunch of menacing thoughts. Being 20 and fresh into the gay community, carrying all my previous negative experiences, left me in a position where I wasn’t even looking for a boyfriend or friend as much as some kind “rescuer”.
I was laying low during the winter and listening to a lot 70s soft rock which definitely ended up inspiring the song. The way that singers from that era would express their inner darkness in a way that was so sexy and elegant made me really want to do the same.
Grumpy Truck plays in Toronto at Collective Arts on October 25th. Check out ‘Being Gay Is So Lonely’ below!
