Joey’s Song

A Few Minutes About...Kay Hanley & Letters To Cleo

Joey's Song

Ever wondered what it takes for a band to craft a legacy that endures despite the odds? In this episode of the Joey Song Podcast, we journey through the dynamic history of Letters to Cleo, led by the magnetic Kay Hanley. From their roots in Boston in 1990 to the zenith of their acclaim with the hit single "Here and Now," we unpack the stories behind their seminal albums "Wholesale Meats and Fish" and "Go." Despite rave reviews, the band never quite reached mainstream stardom. We'll also spotlight Kay Hanley's inspiring solo career, her influential contributions to film and TV soundtracks, and her tireless advocacy for songwriters' rights, culminating in her award-winning work on the Star Trek series.
