Episode 98 - David J (Bauhaus, Love and Rockets, Solo Artist)

"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 a true original—a musician, poet, and creative force whose work helped shape the sound and spirit of post-punk. As a member of Bauhaus, David J brought a distinctive voice and artistic vision to a band that would go on to influence generations. Beyond Bauhaus, his career spans Love and Rockets, solo projects, spoken word, and collaborations that blur the lines between music, art, and storytelling. His work is always pushing boundaries while staying unmistakably his own. Today, David tells us about how this whole journey started for him.
