«Outed on Friday!» Week 46 2025 — The Weekend That Brings the Noise

It’s Friday, the inboxes are finally quiet and the club lights are flicking on — and «Outed on Friday!» has your official weekend soundtrack. From glittering club pop to cheeky seasonal singalongs and heart-on-sleeve balladry, this week’s roundup promises drama, hooks and plenty of reasons to hit replay.

New Releases Set to Ruin Your Sleep (In The Best Way)

Five sizzling new singles are poised to crash the LGBTQ Music Chart next week, and they’re not asking politely. If you’ve been hoarding votes like a miser with coins, now’s the time to spend them — your fave could rocket from barroom banger to chart-topper with one decisive click. Voting opens every Monday at the LGBTQ Music Chart site; make it part of your Monday ritual and give that track the shove it needs.

The Radio Scoop: Tim Graham’s Weekly Revelation

If you missed the live reveal on the LGBTQ Music Chart with Tim Graham, don’t panic — the show is still the place for exclusive spins, hot takes and the kind of commentary that can make a sleeper track blow up overnight. It’s the queer music fix your weekend deserves: tune in, turn it up and bask in the chaos.

Artists — This One’s for You: Submission Rules (Yes, They Matter)

Want your song played next Saturday? Submit. Follow the rules. Seriously. Too many promising tracks get bounced for tiny missteps — the number one offence is not having an active BlueSky account. If you’re serious about being heard, get your socials in order and follow the submission checklist to the letter. Artists who skip it get left at the back of the queue while the rule-followers dance past them.

Featured Acts: Who’s Serving This Week

Catch these tunes on next week’s radio show — don’t miss them.

Liora — «Ruin You»

Norwegian dance-pop siren Liora is here to lift your mood and tug at your heartstrings. Channelling the swagger of Dua Lipa, the bite of Fletcher and the late-night gloss of The Weeknd, she serves up feel‑good bangers with surprising emotional bite. Playful, bold and utterly self-assured, Liora’s music feels intimate yet made for the masses. A proud queer artist, she’s dropping into a fearless new era — kicking off with her debut EP in 2025.

Dan Jarman — «Baggy Jeans»

Brighton’s own Dan Jarman is the indie-pop charmer whose songs sound like secrets swapped over pints — intimate, raw and proper meaningful. Since his debut single last year he’s built a buzzing following, quietly staking a claim as one of the UK’s most affecting queer voices. Dan’s music is driven by a fierce love of queer life and a mission to give a seldom-heard community the spotlight it deserves.

Devilz Playground — «I got this»

Devilz Playground is the Latinx firebrand crashing the scene with raw energy and no-holds-barred honesty. After three years flying solo their sound has levelled up — tighter cadences, razor-sharp lyrics and singles that roar about resilience, identity and power. Expect bold, emotional anthems that refuse to be ignored.

Charlie Big x Shanie x Luv Foundation — «Don’t Give Me Your Life»

Mark Loverush — married 24 years to the ex-frontwoman of 90s gay pop outfit 2wo Third3 — exploded back in 2023 with Julian Napolitano as Luv Foundation (UK). Club legend Shanie will re-release her No.1 smash «Don’t Give Me Your Life» with Charlie Big X Luv Foundation, marking 30 years since the Alex Party original with a fresh, floor-ready reboot.

Vincent DiGeronimo — «Chocolate and Booze»

Vincent DiGeronimo — the DIY singer‑songwriter grinding it out since 2009 — has quietly built a patchwork career: a debut of rough demos, two alt/art/folk records, then a full‑on queer indie‑pop record, «Here, My Heart», inspired by Alice Oseman’s Heartstopper. In 2023 he crowdfunded his latest album via IndieGoGo, attracting backers including Grammy winner Paula Cole, whom he’s had the honour of singing with.
