OUTmusic - The Alliance of Openly LGBT Recording Artist
OUTmusic is the premier 501c3 non-profit organization
that is dedicated to honoring, supporting and advocating on
behalf of under represented openly (LGBT) Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual
and Transgendered Recording Artist & Performers. The organiza-
tion was founded by life partners Dan Martin and Michael Biello
over 18 years ago to provide a safe and supportive environment
for LGBT recording artists & performers.
The organization is a network of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered
musicians and supporters. Performers, composers, lyricists,
producers, recording artists, activists, promoters, press/media and
even non-musicians who believe in the importance of Queer Music Heritage
have joined Outmusic over the years.
The mission of OUTmusic is to ensure that underrepresented
OUT artists/entertainers have equal and inclusive presence in the
mainstream entertainment industry;an industry that has fostered
the silent “don’t ask don’t tell”policy. This policy has
perpetuated the stigma of homophobia & discrimination in the
entertainment industry,the military and the work place.
OUTmusic works to put an end to homophobia in the
entertainment industry and the world we live in. We educate,
advocate and raise awareness with the goal of bridging the gap
between the mainstream and LGBT entertainment industries.
By creating this alliance, we believe that we will be able to create
quality programs and broaden the audience base to create
equivalent exposure for aspiring under represented openly LGBT
recording artists and performers.
Anyone can become a member of Outmusic.
We welcome fans as well as artists. If you support the idea that
LGBT artists should have an organization that works to raise
awareness of their music.
Anyone can join our Outmusic Forum List.
Though only members may post their gig calendars or
announcements,anyone may read the list and is welcomed
to share general music industry information. Click here to

I am still being stalked by a psychic stalker and have contacted the fbi as well as other officials to stop this person from stalking and hacking me as well as the other artists.

Wow, that was an embarrasing error - disregard the comment below this one. I didn't realize that those were the submisison nominations. Even though I did not make the final round, I am happy for those that did, including some personal friends of mine.
