Description

The August 1997 issue of Out magazine features k.d. lang on the cover at a transformative moment in her career. Following the release of Drag, an album of jazz and pop standards centered around themes of love, smoking, and subversion, lang continued to redefine expectations with her bold artistic choices.


In the feature story, "k.d. lightens up," she discusses the inspiration behind Drag, her evolving relationship with fame, and her continued advocacy for LGBTQ+ visibility. The striking cover and interview reflect her confidence and playful irreverence, reinforcing her reputation as an artist who refused to be confined by industry norms.


A rare collectible that stands as a testament to lang’s artistry, activism, and enduring fan connection.
