Drag superstar Plasma has announced her live debut album, Is Miss Thing On? (Live from Joe’s Pub) out November 7 on Joy Machine Records. Its lead single, “That’s Life”—a duet with GRAMMY and Tony-winner J. Harrison Ghee— is set for release on October 10, along with a music video. Pre-save HERE.
Is Miss Thing On? was recorded live at Joe’s Pub on July 28, 2025, accompanied by the Benjamin Young Band. The album is produced by Plasma, Jackie Huba, Alex Grippo, and Benjamin Young. The setlist is a mix of old and new songs, including musical theater classics, standards, and an original trick written by Plasma. “Is Miss Thing On?” follows her last cabaret show, “All That Plazz,” which toured to acclaim last year across the country.
Plasma says, “I wanted to do this recording live for the same reasons that I love live theatre: I get one shot to do a great job in front of a live audience, and I can’t look back. I’ve always been a live performer at heart, so this album is a love letter to my truest self – the unafraid, spontaneous, and irrepressible Plasma you and I BOTH love to see.”

About Plasma:
Based in New York City, Plasma is an actor, singer, drag artist, and top 8 finalist on RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 16. Born in Austin, and raised in the small rural town of Mount Pleasant, Texas, Plasma grew up inspired by artists like Bernadette Peters, Julie Andrews, Barbra Streisand, and Judy Garland. As a musical theatre-trained artist, she’s known for her classic, old Hollywood-inspired style and incorporation of vintage glamour with modern pop culture.
In 2024, she released a cover of “Don’t Rain On My Parade,” with an accompanying music video inspired by the movie Funny Girl, which has since gone viral. Other music videos include “Bloody Mary,” “Anything Goes,” and “Thanks A Lot But No Thanks.” Last year, she toured her “All That Plazz” live-sung cabaret show across the country.
