One of life's true survivors, Hazel O'Connor has come a long way since feeling like a square peg in a round hole...
In this podcast recorded from her French retreat, Hazel looks back on her troubled years growing up which resulted in her rebelling against the system. Escaping to Amsterdam, Paris, Japan and Beirut before returning to England, she recalls that memorable Buzzcocks gig that set her on her musical path. She intimately chats about her big break starring alongside Jim Broadbent, Phil Daniels and Jonathan Pryce in Breaking Glass through to her admiration for David Bowie. She also reveals some great anecdotes, her dream of singing with Ed Sheeran and appearing on Strictly if she was ever asked.
Whether it's performing with her band members Sarah Fisher and Claire Hirst in her Breaking Glass - 40 years on - Hallelujah! tour or being reunited with Toyah for their long-awaited Electric Ladies of the 80's tour, she is back doing what she loves best.
