Gay favorites―and a band called My Gay Banjo―don’t disappoint in a new, and not so new flock of albums coming out in time to sing along with in your car, windows down, as the sun shines down on the earth.

First up is sexy George Michael. In his first album in seven years released earlier in March, “Symphonica,” he brings his live tour of the same name from 2011 and 2012 to a medium all can enjoy featuring live classics and covers.

Diva Kylie Minogue delivers again with her new just released album “Kiss Me Once” with collaboration with Sia and Pharell Williams. Enrique Iglesias also sings with her on the song, “Beautiful.”

You can’t keep a good man down and Boy George is proving to be quite the chameleon, reinventing himself over and over, through the good and very bad times. This time he returns to the studio to produce his first album in more than 20 years with “This Is What I Do” released this month. Boy George tips his hat and soulful voice to jazz and soft rock in this album.

Girls always want to have fun and Cyndi Lauper is celebrating the 30th anniversary of the wildly popular “She’s So Unusual” with a re-release of the album on April 1 including, of course, “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” and “Time After Time.”

The gays love Dolly Parton for her vocal support of equality for all―and that tender voice of hers makes us love her even more. Dolly Parton comes out with her new album “Blue Smoke” on May 13 including a duet with old friend Kenny Rogers.

Tori Amos, an enigma whose devoted LGBT fans follow her to the ends of her sanity, drops “Unrepentant Geraldines,” also on May 13.

In June, bi singer Meshell Ndegeocello, is set to release her newest album, “Comet, Come to Me.” Gay singer Matt Zarley is also set to release a new album, “Hopeful Romantic,” in June to follow up with his hit single and video “Somebody 4 Everybody.”

Hardly mainstream but still worth a listen is queer country duo “My Gay Banjo” who recently released their third album, “Country Boys in the City.” Julia Steele and Owen Taylor sing gay-themed tunes with a country twang and and love to also inject politics into their music.
