Podcast appearances and mentions of Stephen Gately

Louis Walsh is undoubtedly one of Irelands most successful music moguls of all time. In a career spanning nearly 50 years, the Mayo native had an ear for talent and an eye for a story, helping him shape pop music history—one headline at a time. But Walsh was no stranger to bending the rules to get his acts noticed and has come under renewed flack after his appearance on a new docuseries ‘Boyzone: No Matter What' chronicling the rise of one of Irelands greatest pop exports, and for better or worse, his hand in their success. Just how did a small-town manager build a global sensation, and would it have worked any other way? Copy: From Boyzone, to Westlife, to The X Factor and beyond, Louis Walsh is undoubtedly one of Irelands most successful music moguls of all time. In a career spanning nearly 50 years, the Mayo native had an ear for talent and an eye for a story, helping him shape pop music history—one headline at a time. But Walsh was no stranger to bending the rules to get his acts noticed and has come under renewed flack after his appearance on a new docuseries ‘Boyzone: No Matter What' chronicling the rise of one of Irelands greatest pop exports, and for better or worse, his hand in their success. In the documentary, he reveals that he used to sell stories about Boyzone to tabloids to keep them in the public eye, including ­rumours, such as one that Baby Spice and Stephen Gately were dating. If they “got the front page”, he said, he was happy. Lynch recently said: “We've always known the way Louis Walsh operates. And in fairness to him, Ireland and the name Louis Walsh, he's a big name and a big fish in the music industry. Was his puppeteering of the press a necessary evil, or can the highs and lows of Boyzone act as a cautionary tale to a music industry still under scrutiny for how it treats its young stars Today on the Indo Daily Fionnán Sheahan is joined by journalist Ann Marie Hourihane and culture writer Louise Bruton, to discuss how a small-town manager built a global sensation, and ask: would it have worked any other way?

Nate James is an independent soul artist with a successful career to date, having sold over a million albums, received MOBO nominations and urban music awards, and he has headlined festivals across Europe. He has also toured with the likes of Amy Winehouse and John Legend. Nate joins Alexa today to fly the flag for the music industry's LGBTQIA+ community, sharing his own personal story, including how his school teacher supported him in his early years. He discusses the response to particularly gay male-presenting singers within music, which is the topic of his thesis. KEY TAKEAWAYS Nate has encountered numerous instances of individuals concealing their sexuality as a means of advancing their careers within the music industry. This was particularly widespread during the 1980s, a period marked by substantial stigma and apprehension related to HIV and AIDS. Nate also observed the adoption of coded language and individuals altering their personas when interacting with specific individuals to mask their true identities. It wasn't long ago that if you were gay and in a boy band you couldn't come out as it would hurt the record label financially. Now acts are actively signed because they are gay or trans because it's seen by some in the industry as a marketing tool.  Freddie Mercury once told a friend that he didn't come out as gay because he didn't want to tarnish the brand that Queen had built. It was an admirable thing to do in one way to protect his bandmates' livelihoods, but tragic on a personal level for him.  As a student, Nate discovered solace and security with his teachers after experiencing bullying from fellow classmates due to his sexuality and race. He would confide in them, sharing how disheartened he felt that expressing his passion for dance and singing provoked homophobic reactions. BEST MOMENTS ‘I was effectively living two lives, that's the case for most gay male pop stars'  ‘You can't tell someone to be themselves but have parameters and boundaries over that'  ‘From the consumers point of view things have got better, but if you look beneath it there's still a lot to be done'  EPISODE RESOURCES Social Media: Instagram: @thenatejames  Facebook: Nate James Official Relevant Links & Mentions:  Artist Mentioned: George Michael; Wham; Little Nas X; Frank Ocean; Duncan James; Stephen Gately; Will Young; Freddie Mercury; Da Brat; Elton John; Harry Styles; Sam Smith; Kim Petras;  Charlie Kristensen (#CheerUpCharlie): https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNPMcAgo2byrS6XgbuH3udA Daniel Lismore: https://www.daniellismore.com/ London College of Contemporary Music (LCCM): https://www.lccm.org.uk Do you have a burning question on the voice or being a singing teacher?

In The first of a special two-part episode I chat to 90s pop star Kavana. For as long as he can remember Kavana was determined to become a pop-star and he made it happen. At the time Take That were disbanding and a chance meeting with their manager led to him recording a song written by Howard Donald. He became a household name and mega-stardom followed. While he was very well known he didn't have immediate chart success until he released a carefully chosen cover version of "I Can Make You Feel Good". Kavana's journey to fame and the aftermath have been an astonishing test of his resilience. He is a lovely guy and this is story that needed two episodes. In this episode we talk about his move to LA, coming out of the closet, his relationship with Stephen Gately and reality TV.
