EP 30: Terence Trent D'Arby- Where Are They Now?
In this episode of Where Are They Now? we delve into the life and career of 80's star Terence Trent D'Arby or as he is known today as Sananda Maitreya as we journey from his strict upbringing as a child in the church under the thumb of his step father who restricted what music he was aloud to listen to. We also discuss Terence's experience with bullying and racial abuse during school. We then detail his experience at university and as a aspiring pro boxer before taking up a role in the US Army where he would eventually desert his post to follow his dream of becoming a musician, running with a 9 man band in Germany called "The Touch". As the talented vocalist eventually kickstarted his career as a solo act scoring 2 major hits including "Sign Your Name" and "Wishing Well" and taking home a Grammy award for his debut album titled "Introducing the Hardline". Only for his out of control ego and his failing 2nd studio album to send him on a path of self destruction as Terence would go through a transformational spiritual awakening to discover his true higher self, where he would then be known as Sananda Maitreya. As we learn what exactly the 62 year old is up to today.

In the 3rd and final part of the Jeff Buckley story we take a close look at the last year of Jeff's life as he relocates to Memphis for a fresh start away from the hustle and bustle of New York City as he battles with fame and his demanding record labels, who are hoping to squeeze Grace 2.0 out of him. We then learn of the lead up and details surrounding Jeff's tragic death at the hands of the Mississippi River, we analyse the posthumous album "Sketches For My Sweetheart The Drunk" and the legacy he left behind, led by his mother Mary and his close friends and band mates. As we celebrate the life and music of this once in a generational talent that was simply taken way too soon at just the age of 30.
