Corey Glover (Living Colour, Sonic Universe)

To celebrate our 7th anniversary, This week’s guest is someone who was in my top five of dream guests when I started this podcast. Corey Glover is the lead singer of the Grammy-winning band Living Colour. The band’s music has been a big part of my life since their landmark debut album, Vivid, came out in 1988. The double platinum album featured the song, Cult of Personality. It’s one of the greatest hard rock songs of all time. Surprisingly, it wasn’t the first single. Corey actually gives props to Epic, their record company for that decision.

The song has a place in pop culture, most notably by CM Punk, the wrestler has used it as his entrance music for over a decade now.

Corey’s latest project is the band Sonic Universe. The band feature guitar Mike Orlando from Adrenaline Mob. Their debut album, It is what it is, drops on Friday. It’s fantastic!

Living Colour is still going strong as well. They’re have shows this summer and new music should be coming next year.
