Hey friends, welcome to my podcast miniseries. I'm a massive fan of podcasts, even more so over the past year, and so I wanted to do something special for my new EP 'Secrets I'll Never Tell' and create this series of conversations to go alongside it. A companion piece you could say. Each week for the next seven weeks, I'll be chatting to different performers, creatives and inspiring people about stories in their lives, vulnerabilities, sexuality, identity, mental health and loads more. There'll be some live performances, some laughter, maybe a few tears, and hopefully some really valuable conversations for you to enjoy that focus on some of the themes of 'Secrets I'll Never Tell' and beyond.
I could think of no better way to kick off the series than with Adam Lambert. He shot to fame on American Idol in 2009, he became the first openly gay artist to top the US album charts, has since sold million of albums, and has been touring round the world with Queen since 2011 as well. We spoke about mental health during the pandemic, how he deals with the expectations of high-pressured performance, sexuality in the music industry and loads more. I hope you enjoy this episode and the first taste of what's to come over the next seven weeks. Thanks for taking a punt on this with me!
This episode was recorded during lockdown between London and LA, in March 2021.
