On this week’s episode, we’re joined by Eddie Lundon, guitarist, songwriter, and co-founder of the legendary Liverpool band China Crisis. Formed in the early 1980s, China Crisis quickly became known for their sophisticated blend of new wave, pop, and atmospheric soundscapes. With Eddie’s distinctive guitar work and melodic sensibility at the heart of the band, China Crisis achieved both critical and commercial success, delivering era-defining hits such as “Wishful Thinking,” “Black Man Ray,” and “King in a Catholic Style.” Their music remains a touchstone of the decade, celebrated for its emotional depth and elegant production. Beyond the band’s classic catalogue, Eddie has continued to perform, write, and tour internationally, keeping the spirit and legacy of China Crisis alive for new and longtime fans alike. His ongoing work showcases the same thoughtful craftsmanship and understated charm that have always defined his artistic approach. Join us as we talk to Eddie about the early days in Liverpool, the making of those iconic albums, the stories behind China Crisis’s biggest songs, and his creative journey from the band’s beginnings to the present day.
