Your Gay Thoughts' concert in the Radio Študent (RŠ) studio - a part of participation in the 2014 edition of Club Marathon.
Members of Your Gay Thoughts began writing their story as a band that mostly played cover songs. Gregij Felis Catus and Aljaž Košir - Fejzo became the sole members of that band at some point but they also got into DJ-ing and electronic music production at the same time. They founded the Don't Make New People collective together with some other enthusiasts and started organizing club events. For their first performance under the Your Gay Thoughts guise, they invited illustrator Mina Fina to join them as a VJ. They have been performing and conceiving new material together ever since. The fourth, covert, member of Your Gay Thoughts is Michael Thomas Taren who wrote most of their lyrics during one of their rehearsals.
Your Gay Thoughts started performing live in 2011 and they have been known for numerous and engaging gigs since then. The venues they have played include clubs, concert halls, galleries, open -air events (Bikofe), exhibitions (Pop-up dom closing event) and other types of events that strive to promote collaboration, creativity and culture. Some of their most notable performances include the Junior Boys concert in Kino Šiška when they were invited to support this Canadian indie-pop duet and the Klub K4 gig in 2012 when they, together with Ontervjabbit, supported Oneohtrix Point Never on his European tour.
Summer of 2013 was a busy year for this three-piece. They were chosen to play at Terraneo Festival in Šibenik, Croatia, appeared on Rx:tx compilation, and played a gig in Rotterdam, Holland. They also support Kate Boy, an Australian-Swedish pop-electro outfit, on their Kino Šiška Centre for Urban Culture concert. 2014 has been even more exciting: the band was picked to appear on INmusic festival in Zagreb, Croatia. They also played "MAD in Belgrade" festival in the park of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Belgrade (this was a benefit concert and all the revenue from the sold tickets for the first day of the festival was help flood victims in Serbia). All the band members are involved in many different activities connected to visual arts, music and culture, but they still find time to keep a packed schedule as Your Gay Thoughts. In 2014, they are taking part in the Radio Študent (RŠ) Club Marathon tour and performing at Waves Vienna festival in Austria (together with two other Slovenian acts: Nikki Louder and Oknai.
Their songs appeared on different mixtapes and their track Westside was even remixed by another Slovenian producer, Some1Else, in a Radio Študent (RŠ) DJ Seansa programme. Their first record is in the making.
