After forty years, Twin Cities Gay Men's Chorus is spilling the tea - so pour yourself a cup and settle in for our podcast, Voices of the Twin Cities Gay Men’s Chorus.
Join our hosts for a conversation with Patrick and Patrick, a married couple lovingly known in the chorus as “The Patricks.” First hearing a TCGMC performance following the passing of Minnesota’s marriage legislation in 2013, “The Patricks” share their experience as relatively new members of the organization, and why a chorus like TCGMC is still relevant for them.
“The things that we choose to sing about and spread a message about as a gay men’s chorus are important, and we’re not just doing it for the sake of dragging people through history, but it’s because we’re still struggling with this stuff.” –Patrick Puckett
Hear TCGMC’s performance of a modern reframing of “The House of the Rising Sun,” arranged by Joshua Shank, paying tribute to the victims of a 1973 fire in New Orleans at a gay bar called the Upstairs Lounge in which 32 people died.
