Flamy Grant

Join us for the conclusion of the 2024-2025 Capital City Pride Speaker Series when Flamy Grant blows the roof off the place! Flamy is a shame-slaying, hip-swaying, singing-songwriting drag queen from North Carolina. Her 2022 debut record, Bible Belt Baby, was nominated for Best Pop Album at the San Diego Music Awards and was named one of the Top Ten Queer Country Albums of 2023 by Rainbow Rodeo Magazine. Winner of the 2023 Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk Competition and a nominee for the 2023 QueerX Award for Best Drag Artist. She has been featured in Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, People, Billboard, and more. Both a powerhouse vocalist and an intrepid songwriter, Flamy blends the art of drag with her iconic folk/rock sound to create a memorable musical experience. Flamy is the first drag performer to appear on Christian music charts, with both her song “Good Day” and her album Bible Belt Baby reaching #1 on iTunes (staying at the top for nine consecutive days). “Good Day” also debuted at #20 on Billboard’s Christian digital sales chart. Her music has over a million streams on Spotify, Apple, and Amazon. It’s no accident that Flamy’s drag name is an homage to Amy Grant, the undisputed queen of Christian music and 90s chart-topping pop artist. Much of Flamy’s music centers on the queer spiritual journey, telling stories of resilience and recovery from religious trauma in a world where LGBTQ+ people are frequently ignored by, harmed in, or ejected from religious spaces. With a bold lip, a big lash, and a blistering voice, Flamy drags audiences to a soulful, uplifting church of her own making. This down-to-earth diva has entertained music lovers from Los Angeles to Nashville with her funny, frank, and fabulous songs. This event is free, but you must have a ticket to get in. We do expect to fill the Temple Theater to capacity, so be sure to reserve your spot!
