S9E15: Holly Johnson chats to Gary Kemp and Guy Pratt
About this episode
This week on the Rockonteurs podcast we welcome Holly Johnson to the show. Holly has one of the most instantly recognisable voices of the 80s and he continues to record and tour. He’ll be off around the UK later in May and June on the ‘Welcome to the Pleasuredome’ tour before heading to Europe in October.
Holly chats to Guy and Gary about his early influences growing up in Liverpool and the music scene of the local bars and clubs that inspired a generation. He talks about Frankie Goes To Hollywood and their decade defining songs of that era. Holly doesn’t hold back in telling some incredible stories.
