‘Experimental, queer and kind of magical’: Sade and Sam Smith feature on 46-track album for trans rights
More than 100 artists from Beverly Glenn-Copeland to Anohni contributed to Red Hot’s Transa, one of the year’s most remarkable records
The vast project features more than 100 artists, including Sade, Claire Rousay, Ahya Simone, Beverly Glenn-Copeland, Sam Smith and more, contributing to 46 songs that span three-and-a-half hours. There are threads that run throughout the compilation, including a set of new poems by the New York artist and downtown fixture Eileen Myles, one of which is read by the Euphoria actor Hunter Schafer over a track by the saxophonist Cole Pulice. The rising artist Claire Rousay collaborated with Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy on a song titled How Sweet I Roamed, which pairs field recordings with a William Blake poem.
