SATB SPECIAL - JANE WIEDLIN

About this episode

Jane Wiedlin discusses her career with The Go-Go's, her solo projects, and her love for The Beatles.

You know her as a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member as a co-founder of The Go-Go's, their rhythm guitarist/vocalist whose co-written "Our Lips Are Sealed" first out them on the map. Jane was one of the band's composing mainstays, and she went on to solo success in recording as well as acting. This year she has a topical record, I Protest, coming out, as well as her self-penned story, TMI: Memoirs of a Go-Go. In this talk with myself and mutual friend John Roecker, we discuss her punk roots as well as love of The Beatles. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
