About this listen

It's our season finale and we're delighted to be joined by Roddy Bottum, best known as the keyboardist of Faith No More.

Back in 1990 Roddy found himself in the spotlight in the rock world as its first openly gay star. In this special episode Jake and Roddy celebrate Faith No More's breakthrough hit 'Epic' and they discuss what it was like to be the only out queer in rock, on tour with Guns N' Roses and Metallica, his important friendship with Courtney Love and Curt Kobain and his brilliant memoir 'The Royal We'.

Thank you for listening to Series 3 of Queer The Music! Keep an eye out for some special bonus episodes dropping next month...
