Allison sits down with the living legend, Linda Perry, a Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee as well as a Grammy and Golden Globe nominated singer-songwriter, musician, and record producer whose powerful voice both literally and figuratively continues to inspire and influence. She first made her mark with her band 4 Non Blondes whose 1993 single “What’s Up?” was a defining song of the era and recently hit 1 billion streams on Spotify and almost 2 billion on YouTube. She has penned hits for countless artists including Dolly Parton, Christina Aguilera, Gwen Stefani, and Pink and is a trailblazer, an innovator, a pioneer, and a devoted mother. They talk all about the return of 4 Non Blondes after 30 Years, her extremely vulnerable documentary about her life, what motherhood has taught her, and who Linda Perry is today.
