Lee - singer, songwriter and essential member of The Style Council. This chat was recorded in a riverside pub back in January 2025 for my book  Paul Weller: Dancing Through The Fire and Dee has been kind enough to let me share this as a podcast episode. What better timing than the release week for the new Café Bleu Deluxe Edition boxset! From her early breakthrough as a backing singer with Wham! to Paul Weller inviting her to Solid Bond Studios, Dee recalls how she became part of a new band without fully realising the shadow The Jam cast - and how quickly she found her place at the heart of it. She reflects on life inside The Style Council: the collaborative atmosphere at Solid Bond, the camaraderie and chaos of touring, muddy misadventures at Glastonbury, nerves at Live Aid, and the confidence she developed performing her own material alongside the band. She also speaks candidly about creativity, motherhood, stepping away from the spotlight, and finding her way back to music on her own terms.  Find podcast show notes and sign up for regular information at PaulWellerFanPodcast.com Hosted on Acast.
