Gigolo Tears

The »Mausification of Deutschpop« – it’s not a meme, it’s a mission. And Gigolo Tears is fully committed. Chris Schalko, formerly of Zucker and based in Hamburg, has already earned a spot in the queer indie pop Olympus with tracks like »Cramps« and »Hot Maus Summer«. Together with Power Plush, they craft bittersweet bangers that drill into your brain and stick like a sugar rush. With the EP »Heul doch« (Audiolith), Gigolo Tears delivers once more – eight songs that bring PMS, heartbreak, queer joy, and the uselessness of toxic masculinity to the dancefloor. Emotional, clever, bold. And so catchy, you might almost forget just how political it all is.
