It covered some real issues."[6] His electro rock band Gravy Train!!!! gained national prominence for their live shows.[8] His punk band The Younger Lovers started in 2003 as a bedroom demo project.[9] AwardsIn 2018, Purnell was awarded a Whiting Award for fiction.[10] FocusMuch of his work focuses on sex and sexuality. "In my work I try to use 'sex' or the body as this thing that does not create boundaries or separation with an audience, but instead gives my audience back their humanity."[11] He is openly gay.[4] References1. ^{{Cite web|url=http://visualaids.org/artists/detail/brontez-purnell|title=Brontez Purnell|last=AIDS|first=Visual|website=Visual AIDS|language=en|access-date=2018-07-31}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Purnell, Brontez}}2. ^1 {{Cite news|url=https://www.artinamericamagazine.com/news-features/interviews/naked-soap-operas-an-interview-with-brontez-purnell/|title=Naked Soap Operas: An Interview with Brontez Purnell - Art in America|work=Art in America|access-date=2018-07-31|language=en-US}} 3. ^1 {{Cite news|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/3021634/brontez-purnell-burden-book-review/|title=The Truth at the Heart of Brontez Purnell's Since I Laid My Burden Down|work=MTV News|access-date=2018-07-31|language=en}} 4. ^1 2 {{Cite web|url=http://read.tidal.com/article/im-in-the-band-episode-2-brontez-purnell|title=‘I'm in the Band' Ep. 2: Brontez Purnell Talks Growing Up Black, Gay & Punk|website=read.tidal.com|access-date=2018-07-31}} 5. ^1 {{Cite news|url=https://granta.com/brontez-purnell-is-everything/|title=Brontez Purnell Is Everything|date=2017-07-05|work=Granta Magazine|access-date=2018-07-31|language=en-US}} 6. ^1 2 {{Cite news|url=http://www.lambdaliterary.org/interviews/01/02/brontez-purnell-love-compassion-and-rock-roll/|title=Brontez Purnell: Love, Compassion, and Rock & Roll|last=Miles|first=Frank J|date=2012-01-02|work=Lambda Literary|access-date=2018-07-31|language=en-US}} 7. ^{{Cite news|url=https://melmagazine.com/brontez-purnell-is-the-legendary-queer-punk-rocker-and-hysterical-author-whose-book-you-need-to-aa3e52be973c|title=The Legendary Queer Punk Rocker and Hysterical Author Whose Book You Need to Read|date=2017-10-10|work=MEL Magazine|access-date=2018-07-31}} 8. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.colorlines.com/articles/five-reasons-love-brontez-purnell-and-younger-lovers|title=Five Reasons to Love Brontez Purnell and The Younger Lovers|date=2013-12-03|work=Colorlines|access-date=2018-07-31|language=en}} 9. ^{{Cite news|url=http://afropunk.com/2017/04/video-premiere-punk-band-the-younger-lovers-gives-a-triumphant-fun-and-trippy-ode-to-the-working-class-with-whiskey-and-water/|title=VIDEO PREMIERE: Punk band The Younger Lovers gives a triumphant, fun (and trippy) ode to the working class with "Whiskey And Water" {{!}} AFROPUNK|date=2017-04-18|work=AFROPUNK|access-date=2018-07-31|language=en-US}} 10. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.theparisreview.org/blog/2018/03/21/2018-whiting-awards-brontez-purnell-fiction/|title=Brontez Purnell, Fiction|last=Purnell|first=Brontez|date=2018-03-21|website=The Paris Review|language=en|access-date=2018-07-31}} 11. ^{{Cite web|url=https://thecreativeindependent.com/people/brontez-purnell-on-doing-as-much-as-possible/|title=Brontez Purnell on Doing as Much as Possible|website=thecreativeindependent.com|language=en-US|access-date=2018-07-31}} 7 : Year of birth missing (living people)|Living people|American punk rock musicians|Musicians from Alabama|Writers from Alabama|LGBT musicians from the United States|LGBT people from Alabama |
