from City Cast DC · host City Cast
Mike and Bridget sit down with “Big Tony” Fisher, from the seminal D.C. go-go band Trouble Funk. He talked about growing up in D.C., getting his start in the heyday of go-go, and what life was like for a musician back when go-go was treated with suspicion instead of being celebrated as D.C.’s official music.
