An Interview w/ June Millington

The home for Songs That Saved Your Life Radio on WKNY 107.9FM where Jami explores the very queer roots of rock n roll and plays a lot of great music!


I sat down with the legendary June Millington, co-founder of Fanny, the groundbreaking all-woman rock band that shattered barriers in the 1970s. June shared stories of her journey as a queer, Filipina-American musician, the challenges and triumphs of being a pioneer in rock & roll, and the lasting impact of Fanny’s music. Tune in for an inspiring conversation about resilience, representation, and rock history.

Music in today's episode includes songs by Fanny, Suzi Quatro, The Runaways, Gossip, ESG, David Bowie, and many more.
