TRUE HOUSE STORIES® W/ KATHY SLEDGE / LEGENDARY LEAD VOICE OF SISTER SLEDGE # 100
Kathy Sledge joins Lenny Fontana on our Special True House Stories 100th Episode (The legendary lead vocalist of Sister Sledge), which is a triumphant celebration.
Watch and listen how she shares what her work life was like in the beginning of her career and the balance of family life in "The First Female Band" to ever do it, and they became a huge success. You will even hear how Kathy talks about the particulars going on in her family, with the control over the usage of the name Sister Sledge and how she was forced to stop singing the iconic songs for over 20 years.
You all will know her as the lead singer of those familiar tunes such as “We Are Family”, “Thinking Of You”, “Frankie” and “Lost In Music”.
Now you can listen to her share her story starting from a young child to today. When Kathy hears the word “No” she thinks of what’s next and repositions herself to succeed no matter what. Kathy Sledge is the youngest and a founding member of Sister Sledge, an American vocal group which is made up of her sisters that was formed in 1971. After achieving success beginning in the late–1970s thru the mid–1980s with Sister Sledge, Kathy embarked on her solo career in 1989. Kathy Sledge has had several hits on the International Pop and Hot Dance Music Club Play Chart, including “Take Me Back To Love Again", which hit #1 in 1992.
Now get a history lesson on how "We Are Family" does not apply to family harmony.

There's a whole world of rhythm and soul behind the tracks that fill dancefloors, and True House Stories opens the door to it. Hosted by the respected DJ and producer Lenny Fontana, this isn't just a series of conversations; it's an oral history project for a genre built on feeling. Each episode sits down with a different architect of the sound-DJs, producers, vocalists, and label founders-to pull back the curtain on the moments that shaped everything. You'll hear the unvarnished, sometimes messy, reality of how classic records came to be, the late-night studio sessions that turned into anthems, and the personal journeys intertwined with the music's evolution. Fontana, speaking from a lifetime inside the scene, guides these discussions with a genuine curiosity, ensuring the stories remain candid and often surprising. Tuning into this podcast feels like finding a lost archive of club culture, where every interview adds another essential layer to our understanding of house music's enduring pulse. It’s for anyone who has ever felt a four-on-the-floor beat and wondered about the people and passion that put it there.
