Episode 7. LIVE! With Grace Gibson
In this special live episode, I sit down with Grace Gibson, a dynamic talent buyer, concert promoter, and all-around creative powerhouse. Grace takes us on a journey through her career, from booking concerts across the Southeastern US to her personal path of self-discovery and sobriety. We discuss her evolution from a vocal performance student at the University of Texas to a thriving professional in the live music industry and how she found new creative outlets in performing drag as Hugh Stone.
Grace shares her inspiring journey of getting sober in March 2021 and coming out as a lesbian later that year. These life changes have led her to rediscover her passions and creativity. We also delve into her platform, Y'all Out, which aims to provide safe, intentional spaces for the LGBTQIA+ community to connect beyond the bar scene.
