More Artist Friendly is on the way. Following conversations with Michael Bingham of Spiritual Cramp, Melissa Etheridge, and DE’WAYNE, Linda Perry will join Joel Madden on the latest episode of the series.
Perry quickly made her mark as the primary songwriter, vocalist, and guitarist for 4 Non Blondes, where she penned the international hit “What’s Up?” (which Thursday covered earlier this year). That album, 1992’s Bigger, Better, Faster, More!, spent more than a year on the Billboard 200 following its release, going platinum and racking up millions of streams. Beyond that, Perry has become a major presence behind the scenes, producing Surfbort’s Keep On Truckin’ in 2021 and working with a slew of pop stars — including Gwen Stefani, Miley Cyrus, and Ariana Grande. Stopping by the Artist Friendly studio, she joins Madden for a wide-ranging conversation about legacy, creativity, and Let It Die Here — her first solo album in 25 years.
