About this Event
It’s not an exaggeration to call Lynnee Breedlove one of America’s most important queer artists and most influential living storytellers. From his formative career as the lead singer of seminal dyke punk band Tribe 8 to his work as a trans activist in San Francisco founding the nonprofit rideshare service The Homobiles to his Lambda Literary Award-winning book and solo stage production Lynnee Breedlove’s One Freak Show, Breedlove has used a singular voice to tell queer stories of love, grief, joy, and growth for over thirty years.
Trust Me is an acoustic punk/folk/storytelling band featuring Lynnee, Travis Andrews (guitar), and Andy Meyerson (percussion), and has become one of the heaviest, most beautiful, most inspirational, and most ambitious projects we’ve ever participated in.
Though we had all worked together in the queer nü metal collective COMMANDO, Trust Me is a new band born of and forged in loss. In the spring of 2020, in the midst of COVID lockdown, Lynnee experienced unfathomable tragedy: his father and stepmother were brutally murdered in their home by his stepbrother.
In August of 2024, Trust Me, his trio with percussionist Andy Meyerson and guitarist Travis Andrews, recorded an album and built a live show that tells that story and other stories of grief, love, and growth over seven days in the house in Grass Valley, California where the M**der took place.
Taken together, this collection of songs and stories is why music exists: it expresses grief, love, loss, and life in ways that words alone simply cannot.
