SMF Interviewed by
_Out and Around Interview
Super”trans”: Musician StormMiguel Florez By Jenni on June 3, 2011
There are plenty of male folk-twang American singer songwriters. But not many of them can say they learned to write songs at Girl Scout camp.” In his music bio, StormMiguel Florez talks about being born and raised as a girl in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and later making the decision to live his life as the gender he always felt he was.
Amongst our friends, Storm ranks at the top of the list as one of the most fascinating people we know. When we sat down with him after brunch in our home, we found out that Storm is also one of the most well-spoken people we know. So instead of writing up this interview as an article, we thought we’d just let Storm speak for himself.

PERPETUAL CHANGE TG Forum Interviews StormMiguel Florez
Pam Degroff | Jan 17, 2011
It’s usually a bit of a challenge to come up with something interesting for my first column of the new year. This year is different, though, for two reasons. First off, I planned ahead months in advance. And secondly, I found StormMiguel Florez.
Florez is, in his own words, “…a Mexican American FtM, genderqueer, singer/songwriter, performance artist, and live sex show instigator.”
I first learned about him a year or so ago, and partly through Shawna Virago who was featured in our companion Transvocalizers column, we were able to make arrangements for the following interview.
I have always personally felt that transmen are the most under-served segment of our community. Well, TGForum will always work to change that. And talented people like Florez will make the kind of dent in the collective consciousness that can’t be ignored. He has a great interview with NPR that’s still posted, and is a published author as well as a musician with extensive past experience. Florez has also recently released his first solo album project since transitioning, Long Lost Sun, which we plan to review next month.
TGForum is pleased to introduce Storm Miguel Florez to our readers as the first installment of Perpetual Change for 2011.
