‘Pride’ is a hauntingly beautiful piano ballad by Dressed Like Boys and one of the many highlights on the self-titled debut album coming on 29 August. It’s an emotional indie song about frontman Jelle Denturck and his boyfriend being physically assaulted — a bold stand against queer bigotry, and a powerful opening statement for Pride Month.
