Blondie

Legendary New York outfit still going strong

The door of the hotel suite opens, and in walks the most iconic woman in music – the inimitable punk goddess with the steely blue eyes and the razor sharp cheekbones. Even at 62, Deborah Harry is every bit an idol. She deserves the presence of a superstar, but instead is humble yet captivating, quiet yet commanding – the traits that propelled her to international fame as the leading lady of Blondie. Thirty years after the band’s formation and Harry is just as busy as ever – she is in London playing dates with Blondie, but is also here to talk about her new solo album, ‘Necessary Evil’, which finds her just as sultry and subversive as ever.
