viral “Paparazzi” performance back in 2010, and farther still since publicly coming out in 2017.His works in recent years — his latest album Portraits and the Trophies EP especially — have an authenticity and emotionally maturity to them that are usually out of reach for people who lived the full child-star experience.Greyson’s romantic new single “Palladium” is out today, and with a new album and tour by the same name coming soon, there’s a ton to look forward to.We caught up with him to chat about the Palladium era, his current queer music faves, and the thirst-trapping lumberjack of his dreams.QUEERTY: I am so excited to talk to you today.
I was actually at a Portraits [World Tour] show in Dallas where all the lights went out and we all sang “Good As Gold” together with just phone flashlights.GREYSON: Oh my goodness, yes!
I remember that show. We were doing that tour before the album was out. That tour was so cool because we were playing really, really small rooms across the states and people were coming out already knowing the words to some of the singles.
I remember that show very, very well. It kind of sucked that that happened, but was also cool because it created a memory for everyone.
