Episode 80 - Mike Badger (The La's, The Onset, Solo)

"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. Today’s guest is Mike Badger. Mike is a key figure in the early days of The La's, the iconic British band known for their timeless sound that blends indie rock, pop, and folk. As one of the founding members, Mike played an essential role in shaping the band's distinctive style, contributing both as a guitarist and vocalist. His influence can be heard in the group’s folk-tinged melodies and jangly guitar work, which helped lay the groundwork for the band's 1990 self-titled album. Mike’s contributions extended beyond just The La's, as he later pursued solo projects and, as he tells us in our episode today, became a well respected visual artist as well – thanks to a can of baked beans.
