Early Life & Musical BeginningsGary Kempwas born in London, where his passion for music and performing arts took shape early. Raised in Islington, he attended Anna Scher's acting school alongside his younger brother Martin Kemp. Though acting was an early focus, music soon became his true calling. Influenced by the glam rock and punk movements of the ‘70s, Kemp sought to create a new sound, ultimately leading to the formation ofSpandau Ballet in 1978.As theprimary songwriter for Spandau Ballet, Gary Kemp was responsible for some of the most iconic hits of the1980s New Romantic era. The band first gained attention in the London club scene, aligning with the movement's stylish aesthetic. Their breakthrough came with"To Cut a Long Story Short", followed by global hits like"True","Gold", and"Through the Barricades." Kemp's songwriting, blendingsoulful melodies, romantic lyricism, and synth-driven soundscapes, defined an era.Spandau Ballet's success was meteoric, earningmulti-platinum sales, Brit Awards, and worldwide tours. However, internal tensions led to their breakup in 1990. A high-profile legal battle followed, as bandmates attempted to claim songwriting royalties, but the court ruled in Kemp's favor as the sole composer.Following Spandau Ballet's split, Gary Kemp transitioned into acting. His most notable role wasplaying Reggie Kray alongside his brother Martin in the acclaimed gangster biopicThe Krays (1990). He also appeared in major films such asThe Bodyguard (1992) with Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston andKilling Zoe (1993).Though acting remained part of his career, Kemp never abandoned music. He continued writing and exploring new creative directions.In 1995, Gary Kemp released his debut solo album,Little Bruises, showcasing a more introspective, acoustic-driven sound. Though it didn't match Spandau Ballet's chart-topping success, it revealed a different side of his artistry.After years of silence on the solo front, Kemp made a powerful return withINSOLO (2021), an ambitious and deeply personal album exploring themes of fame, identity, and self-reflection. Tracks like"Ahead of the Game" and"Too Much" reaffirmed hissongwriting prowess and sophisticated musicianship.In2025, Kemp releasedFinal Destination, his most introspective work yet. The album reflects on hisstruggles with mental health, the impact of the pandemic, and personal loss. Having suffered fromanxiety and depression post-pandemic, Kemp has openly discussed how the experience reshaped his perspective on life, revealing that he now avoids watching the news to protect his well-being.Despite their past conflicts, Spandau Ballet reunited forsuccessful tours in 2009 and 2015, thrilling fans worldwide. However, tensions resurfaced, and lead singerTony Hadley permanently exited in 2017, leaving the band in limbo. While Spandau Ballet's future remains uncertain, Kemp continues tohonor their legacy through hislive performances, storytelling, and collaborations.Beyond performing, Gary Kemp is arespected voice in music history. He co-hosts the popular podcastRockonteurs with Pink Floyd's Guy Pratt, where they interview rock and pop legends, discussing the untold stories of the music industry. His deep knowledge and engaging storytelling make him an authority in British pop culture.FromSpandau Ballet's chart-topping success to hisacting career, solo albums, and podcasting ventures, Gary Kemp remains a truemusic icon. His ability toevolve, adapt, and create timeless music has solidified his legacy as one of Britain's most influential songwriters. WithFinal Destination, Kemp proves that hiscreative journey is far from over.#garykemp #SpandauBallet #80sMusic#NewRomantic #BritishPop #Rockonteurs#TrueSpandauBallet #GoldSpandauBallet#SynthPop #80sIcons #MusicLegends#ClassicHits #PopRock #MusicPodcast #BehindTheMusic

For our 200th episode we wanted to bring in a guest that rock fans would be excited about but someone The Wolf and Action Jackson really admire. After hosting amazing guests on our 50th (Ryan Condal, House of the Dragon), 100th (live review of Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets after interviewing Guy Pratt and Gary Kemp on ep 96), and 150th (Steve Kilbey of The Church) we needed someone special to commemorate this milestone. As luck would have it, legendary guitarist and member of the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame Steve Howe (Yes, Asia) is releasing his latest solo album, Guitarscape, on September 27 and made himself available to us. As we tried hard not to be complete fanboys, we asked Steve to walk us through how he started building the bones of the album in 2019 thanks to a new Novatron that he'd acquired. We speak with Steve about the different textures of the album from acoustics (Spring Rhyme) to his signature hollow body electrics (Distillations, Passing Thoughts) to his brand new pedal steel (Equinox, Steel Breeze). With his son Dylan on the drums, Steve has put together a colorful palette of textures using his many talents and toys. We also manage to work in some questions about touring with Yes in the US with Deep Purple; however, when we interviewed him the tour was yet to begin, at the time of the release of this episode the tour had concluded. It sounds like there will be more new Yes music and future tours which is wonderful to hear. And, of course, we managed to squeeze in an Asia question because as long time listeners will tell you, it all comes back to Asia. The bottomline is we think you'll love our chat with Steve Howe and encourage you to pick up Guitarscape September 27. And thanks to everyone who's supported us through the first 200 episodes - we have much more in store so stay tuned.
