Known for her iconic roles in Bound, Showgirls, Face/Off, and The Insider, as well as her Broadway turn as Sally Bowles in Cabaret, Gershon has carved out one of the most distinctive careers in the business. Music has always been a big part of her world too — she's recorded albums, toured across America, and performed at Carnegie Hall three times alongside Sting, Laurie Anderson, Joan Baez, and Gogol Bordello. Her new memoir, AlphaPussy: How I Survived the Valley and Learned to Love My Boobs, drops March 3, 2026.

    Radar: Sergio Rotman / Los Fabulosos Cadillacs

    I recently spoke with Sergio Rotman. Composer, and saxophonist best known for his work with Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, the influential Argentine ska/rock band. With the Cadillacs he won the Grammy Award for Best Latin Rock/Alternative Performance for Fabulosos Calavera in 1998 — the first time an Argentine band received a Grammy. Outside the Cadillacs, Sergio led the long-running punk-rock group Cienfuegos.  He’s also collaborated extensively with Mimi Maura — including co-founding her band in 1999. Along the way he’s recorded and produced with artists such as Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth, Debbie Harry, Mick Jones (The Clash), Big Youth, Los Auténticos Decadentes, Todos Tus Muertos, and Los Cafres. He has also released several solo albums and singles in recent years as Rotman, many of which have been produced by Pablo Martin. We speak about all his work in these amazing projects plus his life in Buenos Aires. You can catch Sergio at his club in BA, Strummer Bar, where he hosts his Basura Post-Punk nights and on the road with the Cadillacs. Follow him @sergiorotman on insta to discover all his happenings.

    I recently spoke with Jason Williamson of Sleaford Mods—frontman, social commentator, author, and actor. Alongside the band’s thirteen albums, Jason has appeared in Peaky Blinders and stars in the new rave-era thriller Game, directed by John Minton and produced by Geoff Barrow (Portishead).

    Radar: Godlis

    I recently spoke with Godlis — the photographer whose images defined CBGB’s, the Bowery, and downtown New York in the ’70s punk scene. His iconic photographs of the Ramones, Patti Smith, Television, Blondie, Talking Heads, Richard Hell, and many more offered a window into that world that stays with us today. It’s an astonishing record. We talk about his college years in Boston and when he first picked up a camera. Having that first camera (a Leica) robbed, making his way back to New York, fully realizing his desire to be a defining street photographer, and how he discovered CBGB’s, plus much more. His books include History Is Made at Night, Godlis Miami, and Godlis Streets, each capturing a different part of the worlds he’s been documenting for decades. All wonderful documents of one of the greatest street photographers of all time. ICYDNK: Dylan Hundley is an artist and performer. She is the co-creator and lead singer of Lulu Lewis, and the creator of all things at Darling Black.

    Radar: Youth - Martin Glover

    I recently spoke with Martin Glover, AKA Youth — founding member and bassist of the legendary post-punk band Killing Joke, a pioneering producer, and one of the most influential sonic architects of the last four decades. Beyond his work with the band, he’s shaped the sound of artists across genres — from The Orb, The Verve, and Paul McCartney to Kate Bush, Crowded House, Gina Birch, and Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour — blending experimental, dub, and atmospheric elements into a signature production style. His career bridges punk, mysticism, and radical creativity, making him one of the most singular figures in modern music. We spoke about dimension-crossing experiences with Killing Joke, writing and production techniques, current work, and worldviews. Tune in. ICYDNK: Dylan Hundley is an artist and performer.

    Radar: Tytti Roto

    I recently caught up with Tytti Roto, who’s been a big part of the Helsinki underground for years — you might know her from Rosettes, Modem, Plastic Tones, or Ty Roxy. I met Tytti back in September when we played the same Synthicide night, and I was completely blown away by her and her band Modem. They’re a synth-pop duo she started with Ville Valavuo in 2020, drawing on their shared love of the electronic sounds of the ’80s. When we talked, Tytti was in the studio working on the new Plastic Tones record — her first band — while Modem had just dropped their second full-length, Interface. And knowing her, I’m sure something’s cooking for Ty Roxy too. Go check it all out: Modem via Don Giovanni Records Ty Roxy via Fonal Records All things Tytti on Instagram @rotoxy ICYDNK: I’m Dylan Hundley — artist, performer, co-creator and singer of Lulu Lewis, and all things Darling Black. I also co-host and curate Salon Lulu, a New York-based performance series, and once upon a time appeared in the classic film Metropolitan.

    Radar: Lene Lovich

    Lene Lovich is an American-born, British-based new wave artist whose wild originality helped define the late-’70s post-punk sound. After moving from Detroit to London, she immersed herself in the art scene, writing lyrics for Cerrone’s “Supernature” before breaking out with her 1978 debut Stateless. Its single “Lucky Number” became an instant classic—off-kilter, infectious, and unlike anything else on the radio—introducing her playful, theatrical voice and bold visual style to the world. Through her releases on Stiff Records and beyond, Lovich fused punk urgency with pop hooks and art-rock experimentation. Her look and sound—braided hair, angular rhythms, bursts of yelps and whispers—pushed the boundaries of what pop could be. After stepping back in the ’80s to raise a family, she returned with Shadows and Dust in 2005 and still performs today, an enduring symbol of creative freedom and eccentric brilliance. We spoke about all these things in the midst of her current travels with The B-52’s and Devo here in the US, her first full US tour in 35 years. ICYDK: Dylan Hundley is an artist & performer. She is the co-creator and lead singer of Lulu Lewis & the creator of all things at Darling Black. She co-curates & hosts Salon Lulu, which is a New York-based multidisciplinary performance series. She is also a cast member of the classic New York film Metropolitan.

    Radar: Crispian Mills

    I recently spoke with Crispian Mills of Kula Shaker. Raised in a film family (his mother is Hayley Mills), Crispian grew up on music and cinema where he has spent his life as an artist & filmaker. He formed Kula Shaker in 1996; the debut, K, became one of the UK’s fastest-selling debuts of the ’90s. The band's sound mixes 60s psychedelia with elements of Indian music. The name, suggested by Mills after his first trip to India, was created in honour of one of the twelve Alvars (saints of south India), the ninth-century Indian emperor and holy man, King Kulashekhara. In Indian culture, the name Kulashekhara is thought to be lucky or auspicious. Indeed it has been bolstered by hard work and respect for craft. We talked about his early years, time in India, the perils of early success, spirituality, and why making art is a timeless human endeavor. Kula Shaker’s latest and upcoming releases include the single “Good Money” (September 2025) and the album Wormslayer (due January 30, 2026), described by the band as a “kaleidoscopic storm of psychedelia, celestial harmonies, and cinematic scope.” They’re mid-tour with The Dandy Warhols now; the final U.S. date is in San Francisco tonight before they head back to the UK into early 2026. ICYDK: Dylan Hundley is an artist & performer. She is the co-creator and lead singer of Lulu Lewis & the creator of all things at Darling Black. She co-curates & hosts Salon Lulu, which is a New York-based multidisciplinary performance series. She is also a cast member of the classic New York film Metropolitan.
