All I Ever Wanted (with Kathy Valentine)

This week, Emily and Andrew are joined by the absolutely legendary Kathy Valentine. Probably best known for her work with The Go-Gos, she just released a her fantastic memoir, All I Ever Wanted: A Rock 'n' Roll Memoir. It chronicles the first 30-ish years of her life, starting with her childhood and moving through her discovery of guitar and her time with The Go-Gos, and ending with the early days of her sobriety. We discuss gear, the disillusion of time in the age of COVID-19, the importance of representation, the Minneapolis skyways, feelings, and more.  Sponsored by Old Blood Noise Endeavors and Lollar Pickups.

Om Podcasten

Get Offset is hosted by Emily Harris and touches on a different topic each week. From new products to controversies in the music and guitar industries, Emily brings her years of music business experience to audio essays and discussions. Having worked heavily in live music and the musical instrument industries, as well as being a performer in bands covered on NPR and Big Takeover, Emily and her guests are dedicated to offsetting the status quo of guitar and gear culture. But they're also not too serious about it. Usually.
