True Trans is an acoustic EP by American punk rock band Against Me!. The band released it as a digital single on July 12, 2013 through their label, Total Treble Music. The two songs on the EP were made available via an email download link to those who preordered tickets for Laura Jane Grace's August 2013 tour of the U.S. East Coast. It was later distributed as a 7".

The EP was released for free, for a limited time, on Against Me!'s website on July 15, 2013.

Background

The EP features acoustic versions of two songs from the band's sixth studio album, Transgender Dysphoria Blues, which was released in early 2014. The song "True Trans Soul Rebel" has been played at live shows since May 30, 2012.
