Transvision Vamp frontwoman Wendy James joined LOUD WOMEN Radio on Resonance 104.4FM this week ahead of the band’s first UK tour since 1991.
Wendy was a brilliant guest: sharp, funny, thoughtful and hugely engaging. We talked about getting Transvision Vamp back on the road, the electricity between a band and its audience, and the energy that keeps her making music and playing live.
Watch a clip from the conversation below.
The tour follows sold-out dates in Australia and New Zealand, plus September shows in Portugal and Spain, and brings Transvision Vamp to the UK and Ireland throughout October and into November.
