You are the most beautiful and wholesome group of people. Your music has gotten me through a lot, thank you for being YOU

"You can be Southern and Queer and proud of both."

She looks and sounds so much happier in interviews now than she has in the past few years, I’m so glad she’s finding herself

God, what amazing and generous humans. I miss them. So grateful we have a high-fidelity live version of this song ❤ Ela looks so beautiful in her white fit!

Just frickin crying and watching this for the 3rd time in a row after the news today.

Hope they continue with out Charlie. But who knows. I have a feeling Ela will never stop making music.

I listened to their music and never looked them up to see who they where…….I’m fucking proud of y’all…stay being you and don’t ever let people’s words change who you are

They have direct access to my heart and soul. They really helped me find a safe space when I was coming out.

What an amazing group of people. I love that I still have to explain what I mean by my favorite band being called rainbow kitten surprise lol

Solid songs. My daughter and I made a road trip from Denver to Atlanta, and the bulk of that trip was done listening to RKS. I’ll always cherish that trip and think of the music.

i knew my connection to your music has always ran deep. i cant wait to see yall for the first time this year i will be weeping

I am so proud of my state for this band existing. Appalachia is really beautiful when you get past the stereotypes

I am so proud of them. I’m so proud to have been a fan since RKS in 2015. They radiate the purest energies. All hail Rainbow Kitten Surprise! LOL

I am so in awe of how comfortable she is in her new skin! Beautiful

Such a genuine and beautiful group of people, it makes me unbelievably happy to see how they're constantly working to support all these amazing causes.

I dunno. Elvis, Ann Wilson, Evanescence, and Queen didn’t trot about with expensive instruments croaking like they think Bob Dillon was a talented vocalist. This stuff is format/copycat songs full of dissonant noises and slurred lyrics like a drunk teenager on mushrooms.

I told my gf that I need rks to my first concert i ever see, I’ve never met a band where every melody and lyric just hits so hard

I will always have a hard massive crush on Sam. Ela , wow can't find the right words. Beautiful, of course awesome talent. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I'm even more of a fan now. ❤

Love this group. “It’s called: Freefall” is so great.

So excited to see where this band goes, and what music they make along the way. Such a good start to what I believe will be an amazing era for RKS. Love yall so much

i’ve only just started listening to their music and i am already in love!!! these people and their music are so enchanting and i’m so excited to keep listening and connecting :)

Thank you for sharing Rainbow Kitten Surprise with the world. Y'all are incredible musicians and excellent human beings.

So glad Sam/ela kept their singing voice the same it’s really something magical

Where my boonies at?

The trans movement will never go anywhere without a figurehead who forces it to be accepted. Elton and Freddie essentially made gay rights a thing, they forced society to respect gay people through their music. The most homophobic person instantly becomes tamed once they hear "bohemian rhapsody" or "rocket man". The problem with the trans movement is I just don't have this level of respect for Elliot Page, or K. Jenner. I really think music is the solution - if you make good shit, people put their prejudices aside.

@rackem6991

Жыл бұрын

As a straight person, I don’t care what anyone identifies as or is gay or whatever, each to his own. But when people start talking down to straight people who don’t agree with it, that’s not doing anyone any good. When it’s constantly thrown in your face, people get sick of it. You do you, I’ll do me.

@@rackem6991 I think its the forcefulness that gets to some people, I think the same can be said about a lot of things, and it is just a lot of journalistic laziness. When Elliot Page went trans, the story was a lot of journalists asking various people what they thought of it - and quoting famous folk. Over and over. Traditional news consumers like me get pissed off with this new, unedited form of the news, no word count, no exclusions, all just canvassed opinions.... What do you think of Elliot Page, Justin Timberlake. - "I think she is an inspiration." What do you think of Climate Change Justin Timberlake - "I think it is a tragedy". s What do you think of breakfast Justin Timberlake - - "I like pancakes" and on and on it goes - people read this shit, so people write this shit. I think what is different with RKS is we have something real in the form of lyrics to actually understand.
