These are some of the meta themes that run through the music of flamboyant LGBTQ2A-friendly indie-rocker 'Sail Cassady' who hails from Victoria, BC. Like The National with a dash of Lou Reed, their songs document the torture and delights of the artists own grueling process of self-discovery, and gives you a glimpse into the subterranean realms of the Sail Cassady consciousness.
