Jesus at the Gay Bar

Jesus at the Gay Bar is the fifth studio album by Australian pop group Cub Sport, released on 7 April 2023. The album was announced on 19 January 2023, alongside the album's third single "Keep Me Safe". The album title stems from Jay Hulme's poem published in his 2021 book The Backwater Sermons, that envisions Jesus Christ visiting a gay bar and being approached by a boy who "beg[s] to be healed", only to be told that "there is nothing in this heart of yours that ever needs to be healed".
