This is Cassidy Haley / @cassidyhaley. I'll give you a minute to recover. ;)
In all seriousness,he's not just a really hot and beautiful queer dude. He's also insanely fucking talented. The first song I heard of his was Whiskey in Churches,and actually I watched the video for it. That was really good for me on a lot of levels.
But what really sold me on Cassidy's music was the song Fly. I heard it again via video on his YouTube Channel. He has done several acoustic versions of his songs. He usually begins each recording by talking a little bit to the camera,giving us some background on the song which I personally appreciate a great deal. So the video for Fly starts that way,with about 2 minutes of background and then at 2:25 he starts singing. It's fucking breathtaking. I mean,so powerful and inspiring. Just really moved me.
Both of these songs,along with four others,are on Cassidy's EP Little Boys and Dinosaurs(iTunes link). You can preview the entire EP here on his site. You can also buy the physical cd from his site.
His most recent video is for Daylight Breaks,it's beautiful and haunting and just so full of emotion. I highly recommend it.
Cassidy used to design clothes at Skingraft Designs but has since dedicated himself full time to music. He does still design for friends (many of whom are in the entertainment industry) and for his fans.
I love his design aesthetic,his theatre and drama,and (of course) his music.
I very much recommend him to all of you.
