Episode 76 - Andy Prieboy (Wall of Voodoo, Solo)
“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.
Our guest this week is Andy Prieboy. Andy is a songwriter and musician who was the lead singer for Wall of Voodoo after Stan Ridgway left the band in 1984. Andy went on to do a few solo records, create a well-known cult musical called White Trash Wins Lotto, and wrote one of my favorite songs of the 90s,”Tomorrow, Wendy” – which was famously recorded by
Concrete Blonde on their 1990 record Bloodletting. Today, Andy tells us a
pretty incredible story about a mystery song he became obsessed with back in the day. I think the less I tell you about it, the better!
