"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, enjoy a special bonus episode featuring iconic singer-songwriter Suzanne Vega! We're sharing exclusive highlights from our recent conversation, focusing on the early days of her music career, her first steps into the songwriting world, and more. Don’t miss this deep dive into the origin story of one of folk music’s most influential voices.
