Transa, a galvanising new music compilation in support of trans rights, was born out of tragedy. In 2022, the groundbreaking trans musician Sophie died after an accidental fall; the Transa co-founder Dust Reid had already been thinking about a project that centred trans and non-binary people, and this enormous loss kicked the project into gear.
“That loss was very visceral for me – when Sophie was lost, I was really acutely thinking about all the gifts trans people give to the world,” Reid says.
