Tiger from Divorce on Coming Out As Non-Binary, Touring In A Band & Valuing Authenticity
The Pieces with Bimini
Tuesday, 13 January 2026 - 33 minutes
Divorce are one of the most exciting bands to emerge from the UK’s indie music scene in years – led by their raw emotional honesty, they have gone from small Nottingham venues to gaining critical acclaim.
As their lead singer, Tiger has carved out a unique space in the music industry, fearlessly centring their experiences as a queer and gender non-binary artist in their work.
On this episode of The Pieces, Bimini and Tiger dive into the realities of being a touring musician — from the unglamorous service station meals and technical mishaps to the pure magic of festival crowds – and the importance of grassroots venues.
Tiger also opens up about coming out as non-binary, finding their queer community in Glasgow and how being in a relationship with their trans partner has affirmed their own gender identity in profound ways.
The conversation also explores the exhausting content game of social media, reclaiming the romance of being an artist and why authenticity always wins over virality.
