An interview with singer/songwriter Namoli Brennet, who describes past performances in pigtails and a five-o’clock shadow. -genderfork

I love the song played in the video (Boy in a Dress): “When i was just thirty-three / I looked at me / I could have seen / a girl or a boy in a dress / or a girl / or a boy in a dress”

Here’s an excerpt from her bio:

“Webster’s defines anomaly as a deviation from the common rule, but look a little farther and you’ll find another definition: hard to classify. And that might be the best way to describe musician Namoli Brennet. Brennet was born male and transitioned to female, but like many gender-variant types, she simply identifies as ‘trans’.”
