While on tour for their sophomore album, emo band HOME IS WHERE pulls up to venues across the country and provides moments of community, celebration, and freedom for their trans-forward audience as well as themselves. Energetic performances are the bridge between moments of vulnerability for the two trans women who lead the band and the fans lining up to see them.
