“Don’t Feed The Plants” w/ Bitch & Michael-Leon Wooley
from Minor Revelations with Drew Droege · host Drew Droege
This week, Drew has invited musical geniuses Bitch and Michael-Leon Wooley and actually has the audacity to sing in front of them! Luckily it’s brief. Also check your talking plants for drugs and blame Reaganomics. Bitch Bitch is a longstanding queer music icon. Bitch first achieved notoriety as one half of the queer folk duo Bitch and Animal. The band toured with Ani DiFranco, and released two albums on her label Righteous Babe Records. In the mid 2000s, Bitch went solo, and shared stages with the Indigo Girls, acted in John Cameron Mitchell’s film "Shortbus," co-wrote a song with Margaret Cho, and produced two albums of her elder folk hero Ferron. In 2022, she released “Bitchcraft” on the legendary indie label Kill Rock Stars, her 9th studio album. For “Bitchcraft,” she made her electric violin front and center over huge beats and deep synths, and coined the genre “Poet Pop.” The album was voted #1 on the top 10 end-of-year list of Yahoo Entertainment’s albums of the year. “Bitchcraft” caught the ears of Indigo Girls and Ani Difranco, who both took her on tour. Joey Soloway (Transparent) directed the music video for “Easy Target.” Follow Bitch @BitchMusic on all social media. Michael-Leon Wooley Michael is an Actor/Writer/Producer who costars opposite RuPaul in the Netflix series AJ & The Queen as Louis, a blind diabetic Drag Queen, and is also the voice of Louis, the high-strung jazz singing, trumpet playing alligator in Disney's The Princess and the Frog.
