Staci speaks with June Millington, a founding member and the lead guitarist of the first all-female rock band, Fanny. Fanny was formed in 1969 and they paved the way for higher-profile bands like The Runaways in the 1970s, and The Go-Go’s in the 1980s. June talks about some of her struggles breaking into the so-called “boy’s club” of rock, and the brand-new documentary film, Fanny: The Right to Rock, as well her memoir, Land of a Thousand Bridges: Island Girl in a Rock & Roll World, plus a lot more. Lastly, Staci reads from the new, #1 bestselling Rock & Roll Nightmares: True Stories book, recalling a forgotten female voice of the ’70s soft-rock era, Judee Sill.
