Originally from Albuquerque, New Mexico, StormMiguel Florez is a Mexican aMaricon singer/songwriter, QueErotic performance artist, and live tranny sex show producer. Sometimes he does these things all at once. As a co-creator of Trans as Fuck and occasional leader of queer ritual, he is learning how to integrate trans and POC activism with sexiness and connection to Mama Earth.
StormMiguel, who now lives in the Bay Area has performed his music and spoken word across the US. He co-founded, co-produced (with Seeley Quest) and performed in the pornarific cabaret Trans as Fuck in San Francisco and West Hollywood (2004, 2006, 2008). Trans as Fuck received a Queer Cultural Center grant and showed at the 2008 National Queer Arts Festival.
StormMiguel has also featured at the National Queer Arts Festival: Intercourse (2001), Viva La Joteria (2004), Home Queer Home, and Transforming Community (2007). He was honored to have his music featured in Sean Dorsey’s Uncovered: The Diary Project in January 2009.
StormMiguel’s writing has been published in BANG magazine (out of Stockholm, Sweden), From the Inside Out: Radical Gender Transformation, FTM and Beyond (Manic D Press) and his own self published The Pussyboy Chronicles (Sticky Press).
