Julian Stefoni recently passed away from a nine month long battle with cancer. We wanted to air the interview when he visited Musicians Reveal with Joe Kelley studios. The late great funk and roller lived in Portland, Oregon and also had roots in Chicago and Minneapolis. Besides a very successful solo career, Julian fronted the Erotic City Prince Tribute band. Julian was loved around the world especially in the Purple Family community. Until we all meet again. One.
