"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.



This week's guest is Lora Logic of X-Ray Spex and Essential Logic. In the world of punk rock, few figures are as genuinely groundbreaking as Lora Logic. A true icon of the UK punk scene, Lora rose to prominence as the saxophonist behind the anarchic energy of X-Ray Spex, later carving her own path with the avant-garde brilliance of Essential Logic. More than just a musician, she was a force who reshaped punk from the inside — blending raw energy with experimental flair. But Lora's journey didn't stop at music. After stepping away from the spotlight, she experienced a profound near-death event that altered the course of her life forever. In this episode, Lora opens up about her unconventional rise and the spiritual awakening that followed her brush with death.
