The month of June kicks off ginormous gay pride celebrations around the globe, which means it’s a great time for everyone to celebrate diversity, equality, and acceptance. Hypeful (not a site to miss a party) would once again like to help out the Pride festivities by offering up a collection of indie-tastic tunes by some of our favorite LGBT musicians!

The response to last year’s song collection was absolutely incredible! I sincerely hope you enjoy this year’s expanded batch of indie-centric gay tunes just as much. Hypeful wishes everyone a very happy and safe month of celebrating!
