This is an unusu­al year for Pride, and we’re all a lit­tle more iso­lat­ed than we would like to be. To com­bat iso­la­tion, I’ve made it a pri­or­i­ty to con­nect per­son­al­ly with 2SLGBTQIA+ musi­cians. In addi­tion, this allows me to meet with some won­der­ful humans and be remind­ed of all the lit­tle moments of con­nec­tion and fun the 2SLGBTQIA+ com­mu­ni­ty has brought me over the years. It helps me get through this year, and look for­ward to the time when our com­mu­ni­ty can come togeth­er in per­son again. 

As you’ll know from part 1, inter­viewing The Divys was a love­ly throw­back to the days of in-per­son con­ver­sa­tions as William and Klif­fee are extra­or­di­nar­i­ly easy to talk to about every­thing from music to TV. This tal­ent­ed new wave duo is lit­er­al­ly every­where, win­ning con­tests and fea­tur­ing in TV shows and movies, but this does­n’t stop them from being under­stat­ed and mod­est about their musi­cal stylings. If you’re look­ing for a band to hit you with some nos­tal­gia while pro­vid­ing new favorites The Divys are the ide­al fit for you. Take a lis­ten and put The Divys on your list of artists to track for a show post-quar­an­tine. Fin­gers crossed we will see them in Cana­da one day! When they get here, hide your ass­hole friends and show your best side to uphold that beau­ti­ful Cana­di­an impres­sion of polite­ness and friend­ly faces.
