YouTube artist Boyinaband launches new LGBT music video

Paul Gustafson April 10, 2015

YouTube artist Boyinaband has released a new music video, Spectrum, which focuses on young LGBT people and the issues they may face when coming out and dealing with their sexual identity.

Boyinaband

THE video is a joint project with somewhereto_ a UK wide charity which offers young people aged 16-25 access to free spaces in their communities to pursue creative and enterprising endeavours. Boyinaband, AKA David Brown, is an ambassador for the charity, which sourced and provided the location for the video.

Directed by Creative Director & Producer Mike Buonaiuto, the narrative of Spectrum features two stories of young people struggling to explore and understand their sexual identity. In one scene a girl hides her relationship with her girlfriend from her mother fearing she may be kicked out of the family home.  In another scene a young man sits alone at a bus stop seeking help and advice online. He appears to have experienced physical abuse.
