The upcoming postal vote signals a monumental shift in recognising same-sex marriage and equality among the LGBTIQ community. Outdated alarmist parliamentary rants aside, saying yes to love — no matter what gender or sexual preference someone is — is the biggest triumph our generation can achieve. Enter The Marion Cranes, dubbed the queer synth-pop duo that will flirt with you and be as camp as hell. 

Milk Bar Mag caught up with the up-and-coming queer band on their new heart-tugging ballad ‘Feel (Gay Love)’, the sexy dance cover of Robbie William’s hit. ‘We wanted to do an anthem to remind us all to stay positive and keep our sense of humour while this ridiculous charade plays out,’ says band member Glen Prins. The other half of The Marion Cranes Dane Yule adds, ‘we’re from New Zealand and unfortunately unable to vote, but this is our contribution to marriage equality.’ 

Are you ready to shake your booty and sing at the top of your lungs? The Marion Cranes debut EP Sexy Motivation tackles queer themes in an unique and rare way while remaining upbeat and spacious. Their tunes will see you dancing yourself to become a sweaty mess. 

Playing in a string of gigs over the coming months, jump on their Soundcloud page to immerse yourself in their new song, Feel (Gay Love).
