Four years ago openly-gay singer/songwriter Steve Grand maxed out all his credit cards to make his very first music video. It was a gamble that quickly paid off as it went viral and got over 1 million hits in the first week (it now stands at 6.5 million), and his first album that followed entered the Billboard Independent Artist Chart at no 3.
Now the totally disarmingly charming Grand is headlining in his own Show at Provincetown’s Art House Theater and wowing crowds all summer long. That is where we caught up with him to talk about life, love ….. and music of course.
Steve Grand was talking to Roger Walker-Dack for queerguru reports on PTV’s Channel 99 and filmed by Hussein Wentz.
The legendary singer and performer Jimmy James a two-time MAC Award Winner is back where it all started for him at The Sage Inn in P.Town for the whole summer season. He has a brand new show called ‘History Repeating’ which as well as including the ‘voices’ of some of the stars that helped made him famous like Bette Davis and Billie Holliday, Jimmy has introduced a whole swathe of new material ….from the likes of Lana Del Rey and Adele ….. that he calls ‘young and modern’.
One night after another sold out show he sat down with Roger Walker-Dack to bring us all up to speed with how he has yet once again ‘reinvented himself’ AND as a special treat, he also sang live for our cameras too.

Its been some 17 years since Del Shores’s movie Sordid Lives played for a record-breaking 96 weeks at the Palm Springs Movie Theater. Mainstream audiences elsewhere may have dismissed the movie all too quickly, but it wasn’t long before it became a beloved gay cult classic that even spurned a prequel TV series.
The plot is of course preposterous, but anyway its quite inconsequential and just a set-up for these larger-than-life characters to be outrageously rude to each other in the most hilarious fashion.
