fun and dancing

At Time Life, celebrities are always dropping by for a chat. We never know who is going to walk through our doors.

Recently, Jack Hues and Nick Feldman from Wang Chung stopped by and we grilled them on the details of their career which stretches back nearly 30 years.

It's a fascinating look inside the inner workings of a band that has produced two bona fide classics. Check out Jack and Nick talk about "Dance Hall Days", "Everybody Have Fun Tonight" and more.

Here's part one of a two-part, exclusive interview. You might need to put the volume up a bit due to some background noise at the location where it was recorded.



Currently, Wang Chung is circumnavigating the globe playing live shows to adoring fans. Coincidentally, they have a new EP out at the moment called "Rent Free". Check out the title track.
