Ep 799: Everybody Wang Chung Tonight with Jack Hues

In this nostalgic and energetic episode of The Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T., host Linda Mitchell is joined by Jack Hues—frontman of the iconic ‘80s band Wang Chung—for a deep dive into the band’s extraordinary 40-year career. From their massive hits like “Everybody Have Fun Tonight” and “Dance Hall Days” to scoring cult-classic films like To Live and Die in L.A., Wang Chung’s music has become a cornerstone of pop culture. Jack shares the story behind their just-released career-spanning retrospective Clear Light/Dark Matter, loaded with hits, rare demos, and unreleased gems. The duo also talks about touring with Rick Springfield on the I Want My '80s tour, Wang Chung’s unexpected presence in the new Grand Theft Auto trailer, and what it means to “Wang Chung” in 2025. With a third solo album on the horizon and a 40th anniversary reissue in the works, Jack proves that this legendary act is still innovating and inspiring audiences worldwide.
