Housekeeping by Cay Is Okay
Cay Is Okay's long awaited debut LP Housekeeping comes from years-long efforts across sociopolitical landscapes and personal growth milestones. Through rock with punk and pop elements, the album addresses the queer brown experience in a cishet white world through the lens for frontperson Cay Davis's birth chart. 'Housekeeping' references the astrological houses as well as individual participation in the perpetuation/breaking of oppressive systems.
