Dee C. Lee - Singer, Songwriter - The Style Council, Solo, Wham! and more...

For this special episode, I bring you a conversation with
Dee C. Lee - singer, songwriter and essential
member of The Style Council.


This chat was recorded in a riverside pub back in January 2025
for my book Paul Weller: Dancing Through The Fire and Dee
has been kind enough to let me share this as a podcast episode.
What better timing than the release week for the new Café Bleu
Deluxe Edition boxset!


From her early breakthrough as a backing singer with Wham! to
Paul Weller inviting her to Solid Bond Studios, Dee recalls how
she became part of a new band without fully realising the shadow
The Jam cast - and how quickly she found her place at the heart
of it.


She reflects on life inside The Style Council: the collaborative
atmosphere at Solid Bond, the camaraderie and chaos of touring,
muddy misadventures at Glastonbury, nerves at Live Aid, and the
confidence she developed performing her own material alongside
the band.


She also speaks candidly about creativity, motherhood, stepping
away from the spotlight, and finding her way back to music on her
own terms.
