Released 11/22/24
The Red Hot Organization has unveiled the benefit album TRAИƧA, an ambitious 8-chapter, 46-song compilation that aims to elevate transgender awareness by celebrating the music of today’s boldest, most inventive trans and non-binary artists.
"We started talking about all the gifts that trans artists have been giving to the world, and wanted to create a Red Hot project that centered and celebrated those gifts," TRAИƧA co-producer Dust Reid explains in an official statement. "We hoped to create a narrative that positions trans and non-binary people as leaders in our society insofar as the deep inner work they do to affirm who they are in our current climate."
The TRAИƧA collection features contributions by Sade Adu, André 3000, Julien Baker, Fleet Foxes, Allison Russell, Sam Smith, Moses Sumney, Jeff Tweedy, Sharon Van Etten, and Wendy & Lisa, among many others.
Initially available via digital formats and streaming platforms, TRAИƧA will also be made available this spring in the form of a special limited-edition 6LP vinyl box set that can be pre-ordered here.
