Jay Brannan to Release Debut Album goddamned This Summer

 

I was starting to worry about cutie, gay singer Jay Brannan: Post-Shortbus, he's been hustling for his career in music - we covered Jay's Unmastered EP, and we interviewed him for NewNowNext NOISE - and it looks like he's felt the pressure of the biz. On Jay's MySpace, he sings he kind of just wants to be a guacamole-making "housewife," and in March, he posted a blog entry titled Album Schmalbum. ... Don't give up, Jay!

Well, Jay didn't give up, and his full-length debut, called goddamned, is officially happening. He produced the album on his own label called - oh, Jay, cheer up! - Great Depression Records. Jay will also go on tour this summer starting July 11, right after goddamned's release.

And now enjoy the music video for "Body's a Temple" - which is kind of old, I know ...
