Episode Description from the Publisher

"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. We have Jonn Penney from the band Ned’s Atomic Dustbin on the show this week! Few bands captured the restless energy of the early nineties British indie scene quite like Ned's Atomic Dustbin. With their twin-bass attack, amazing live shows, and a debut album that turned heads on both sides of the Atlantic, they burned bright.  But, none of that might have happened had Jonn’s father not bought a new house.  Intrigued?  Listen on to hear more. You can buy Jonn's new book "Self-ish" here.
