The final time G Flip carried out in Perth, simply weeks earlier than the pandemic introduced journey to a halt in early 2020, they hadn’t heard the title Chrishell Stause.
It’s honest to say lots can change in three-and-a-half years.
The singer is now married to the American Selling Sunset star — and their new spouse might accompany them after they make their long-awaited return to WA subsequent month.
G Flip has been reflecting on the surprising twists life takes as they gear up for the August 11 launch of their sophomore album, Drummer.
Tracks reference the 29-year-old’s whirlwind romance with Stause, transferring to Los Angeles and popping out as non-binary — all issues G Flip might solely have dreamed of when their critically acclaimed debut About Us dropped in 2019.
“This record is way more mature to me,” G Flip says.
“For my first little record, everyone in Australia was getting to know me. I was wearing my colourful T-shirts and shorts and Vans and flat-panel caps.
“All my fans have seen me go through different relationships, from the partner who About Us was written about to now being married to Chrishell. Everyone has kind of grown up with me, and it has been nice to feel that support over the years.”
G Flip’s most heart-warming fan second got here not too long ago within the type of a younger boy referred to as Levi, who appeared in a TikTok video explaining the musician’s gender id to his sister.
The clip, which attracted tons of of hundreds of likes, moved G Flip to tears.
“Although it is my dream of being a drummer-singer and living this cool life where I get to play music every day, a big part of this project is also me wanting to be the role model my younger self never had,” they are saying.
“If I was the same age as Levi who was in that video, understanding what it is to be non-binary and teaching others — he is only six or seven years old — if I was educated at that age, it would have helped me feel so much calmer and I would have had far less dark thoughts.”
Stause has performed a giant half in how settled G Flip feels of late.
After assembly at a Halloween get together in 2021, the truth TV realtor confirmed they have been an merchandise on Selling Sunset the next May, and a yr later the couple tied the knot in an impromptu Las Vegas marriage ceremony.
“We have been in our honeymoon phase for nearly two years now,” G Flip says.
“We are just a really good pairing. Our lives are quite similar in how busy we are and how our schedules are all over the place. I really feel like I have found my person in Chrishell, she is just so f…… awesome. I can’t wait to bring her down to some Aussie shows.”
And an Australian marriage ceremony is on the playing cards, too.
“That’s definitely going to happen,” G Flip says.
“We plan to get married every year, because we have friends and family all over the place. We are not talking big, expensive weddings; we are talking 10 people or less.”
Fitting in one other ceremony might show difficult, nonetheless. When the tour for Drummer is wrapped up, G Flip is eager to strive their hand at performing.
“When I was growing up I did a lot of musicals in school and I always thought at some point I would get into acting. I also want to write a musical as well,” they are saying.
“I have done a few little auditions there but I want to get some coaching and lessons under my belt before I do any more. Even with my career as it stands, you do need to act when you make music videos and are performing. I just want to hone in on those skills and we will see what happens in the future.”
Drummer is out on August 11. G Flip is enjoying on the Astor Theatre on August 26 (bought out).
