In this episode, we have the incredible opportunity to sit down with two music legends—Siedah Garrett and Glen Ballard—whose contributions have shaped some of the most iconic records of the past four decades.
Siedah Garrett shares her journey as a powerhouse vocalist and songwriter, from co-penning Michael Jackson’s “Man in the Mirror” to working with an array of world-renowned artists. She reflects on the creative force behind her songwriting, her experiences collaborating with industry giants, and some of the moments that have defined her career so far.
Glen Ballard, a producer behind era-defining albums, gives us a deep dive into his approach to music production, his role in crafting unforgettable hits, and how this all started for him from the age of four.

Whether you're a fan of their work or curious about the magic behind the music, this conversation offers a rare glimpse into the creative process of two extraordinary artists and their affect on The Corrs’ most successful album to date, ‘Talk on Corners’ with specific focus on the tracks ‘Queen of Hollywood’ (Where the album derives it's title) and ‘What I Know’.
