True Trans With Laura Jane Grace, the 10-episode docu-series produced by AOL Studios in association with Reza & Company Productions, was also recently nominated for a News & Documentary Emmy® Award in the New Approaches: Arts, Lifestyle, Culture category. The groundbreaking series tells the story of Grace, the cultural icon and frontwoman of Against Me! who came out as transgender in 2012, and also provides an up-close-and-personal look into her remarkable journey as well as other transgender individuals across the country. True Trans With Laura Jane Grace, which first debuted on AOL in October 2014, was Directed by Austin Reza and Executive Produced by Nate Hayden. View the entire series via The AOL On Network HERE.
2014 was a pivotal year for the four members of Against Me!, a year that included world touring and the release of its widely acclaimed sixth full-length album, Transgender Dysphoria Blues, that landed on countless year-end lists. It was also an especially successful year for frontwoman Laura Jane Grace who continued work on her highly-anticipated memoir and performed a number solo shows around the country that included storytelling and spoken word. Grace also served as Music Director for MTV‘s Rebel Music, a series of documentary films about youth, music and global social change, focused on youth protest movements in the most challenging and turbulent parts of the world. Currently she is a contributing writer to Noisey where she writes a bi-weekly advice column titled Mandatory Happiness and, alongside the legendary Joan Jett, recently loaned her support for Miley Cyrus‘ “Happy Hippie Foundation,” a non-profit whose mission is to rally young people to fight injustice facing homeless youth, LGBT youth and other vulnerable populations.
With the release of 23 Live Sex Acts, Against Me! will remain one of the hardest working bands in music as they continue to tour and deliver empowering commentary through its passionate punk that’s been revered for over 15 years. Against Me! will be making the following North American appearances throughout 2015. Dates below with more to follow.
