Diana Ross released the original version of “I’m Coming Out” in 1980, produced by the legendary Chic members Edwards & Rogers. Rodgers got the idea for “I’m Coming Out” after noticing three different drag queens dressed as Diana Ross at a New York club. There’s an amazing trombone solo at the end by Richard Boyd – one of the few trombone solos in a top-10 pop song!
This song has become an anthem for the queer community, and we are looking forward to playing it at Pride. Our version was arranged by Carlos M. Osuna Arballo, Jr.
