Renowned keyboardist Gary Hudgins joins Musicians Reveal with Joe Kelley for a powerful and revealing interview. Best known for his work with the Brides of Funkenstein and the larger P-Funk collective, Hudgins opens up about his life behind the music. From his early days in Baltimore to sharing the stage with funk royalty, Hudgins reflects on the serendipitous turns that shaped his career.

🎙️ Musicians Reveal with Joe Kelley is a podcast featuring legendary and emerging funk, R&B, and Prince-associated artists. On air since 1982 and now spanning five decades, the show was personally spotlighted by Prince on his website in 2004. He also gifted us the One Nite Alone box set in 2002 — before any media outlet.

The conversation takes a heartfelt turn as Hudgins discusses his departure from the P-Funk organization, citing the chaotic and drug-influenced touring lifestyle that ultimately prompted a personal reckoning. Through rehab and recovery, he found a new focus—emerging more dedicated than ever to his craft. Hudgins also shares insight into his current music production work and encourages emerging artists to prioritize well-being while staying creative and collaborative. It’s a must-hear story of funk, survival, and reinvention.
