Gay and queer music artist Korri Gillis says: 'The motivation to create original music came later in life ... because the thought of showing the world who I was while growing up in the '90s ... was a terrifying thought.'
Tell us what it’s like living in America today as an LGBTQ+ artist and how it is impacting your life and your work.I have been singing covers and singing in cover bands for several years. Decades, in fact. The motivation to create original music came later in life for me. This was mostly because the thought of showing the world who I was while growing up in the ‘90s in the Chicagoland area was a terrifying thought. And it was literally against policy while I was a lead singer in the U.S.
In recent years, KSR Productions has been entertaining the Hillcrest/North Park community with original productions, including “The Soul Of A Decade,” the R&B decades show “R&B and Broadway” and its new “‘90s R&B Tea Dance” in venues The Merrow, Diversionary Theatre’s Clark Cabaret and AWOL Bar San Diego. KoGee Soul Reprise has also been performing the tunes from the debut album in larger venues around town, including the Belly Up Tavern, The Holding Company and the Music Box.
