"Lived Through That” is the companion podcast to my book where I look at influential musicians of the 80s and 90s and where they are today. On this podcast, we’ll delve deeper into a single pivotal moment in the lives of some of the artists I feature in that book, as well as other artists I love and admire. The stories they tell are open, honest, and inspiring.
This week on the podcast, I’m joined by Lesley Woods, frontwoman of the influential post-punk band The Au Pairs. Known for their sharp political edge, fearless lyrics, and groundbreaking role in the late-70s and early-80s UK punk scene, Lesley helped shape a sound—and a message—that still resonates today.
