Jamie Irrepressible is a North Yorkshire-born, Manchester-based singer/songwriter and producer. He’s also the creative mastermind behind The Irrepressibles. Throughout his career, the British singer/songwriter and producer has made sexuality — in particular, his sexuality — the centerpiece of his work.
2010’s full-length debut, Mirror Mirror featured “In This Shirt,” which was later included on the soundtrack for the short film., The Lady Is Dead. 2012’s “Two Men in Love” firmly cemented The Irrepressibles mastermind’s reputation for being fearlessly uncompromising in terms of song structure and thematic concern. In 2014, he sang the song at the first wedding between two men in the UK.
The British singer/songwriter and producer’s recent album, Yo Homo! is reportedly the most direct, most sexual album of his catalog to date — and a celebratory, uninhibited and steamy rush of lust, love, honesty and community. “I want to make a record specifically for the queer community, to create a safe space where people feel they are being expressed. To contribute something to that soundtrack of our lives, both in the music and the videos.”

Sam McGuire
“When I first heard the song, I immediately thought of Chandler and Mike. I think they are the coolest and just loved the idea of doing a sort of day in the life, following them around LA as they just skated around lived their lives. We had a tight timeline for the video so we filmed in in about a day, which I think worked in our favor as we didn’t have too much time to overthink what we would film/do. Also gave room for some slow moments as we sat and ate food, or laid in bed wondering what we were going to do next. It kind of started with that, them at home. I really liked the idea of a really authentic queer skate couples skate day and so just sort of let the day unfold as organically as possible.”
Chandler Burton:
“As queer people we appreciate being spotlighted by artists for our own art forms and our own expression with no expectations of how to act or how to be. Just being able to be our genuine selves in the works of this has really made us feel appreciated for our own true selves as individuals. Love wins. Live laugh lobotomy”
Mike Iemma:
“It was great to get to work with people who didn’t try to force a narrative but instead asked us about our lives and what we like to do and then followed us doing those things. And it was really cool to get to work with other queer creatives. I also really like using LA as a backdrop for video work, so it was fun to pick areas that try to capture some of the range of what LA looks like.”
