We all have those songs that are forever ingrained in our coming-of-age stories. Songs that gave us hope, played during our first kiss, helped us feel fierce, or simply helped us understand ourselves a little bit better. This is oftentimes particularly true for LGBTQ artists.
Throughout the month of June, and only on PRIDE, LGBTQ+ artists are curating and sharing playlists that reflect their formative years—their Soundtracks of Pride.
Singer-songwriter Ben Hazlewood is premiering his newest video, "Louder Than Thunder," exclusively with PRIDE.
“I sat down to write my vows and everything that I hoped for us, for our lives together," he explained. " I turned those thoughts, ideas and dreams into a song dedicated to the one I love.”
Hazlewood also broke down the songs he picked for his Soundtrack of Pride.
"From running around the house singing as a young kid to running around the house drunk as an adult, these are the songs that have inspired me to become an artist, that have inspired me to stay an artist and that have inspired me to be a better artist."
