“Oh, there’s no better party / Just throw some glitter on it honey / And take me dancing, dancing at the gay bar.” Woo! Scottish Canadian folk-pop singer/songwriter Evangeline Gentle has a fun night planned.  She asserts, “I wanna lose my voice screaming every anthem / It’s time I let go, let loose, have fun.” Word! This fun takes place at the gay bar, hence the title of her single, “Gay Bar”. “Gay Bar” appeared on her 2023 album, Where The Diamonds Are. Gentle penned “Gay Bar” while Jim Bryson produced it. Have I mentioned that fun is the modus operandi?!

In 2024, Daniel Adams produced the remix titled “Gay Bar (Daniel Adams Remix)”.  The synths are assertive, bright, and warm, amplifying the original song. The remix is even more danceable, fitting the vibe of the gay bar Evangeline is visiting. “Radiant queens adorned in jewels / Platform heels, Chanel perfume,” she sings, adding, “Help me forget / About this troubled world tonight / And take me dancing at the gay bar.” No deep analysis is necessary: A gay bar is an F-U-N place to be! The perfect way to de-stress. Carefree, Gentle knows where to go to have a good time!
