Ep. 23: Marco Mendoza (Whitesnake, Thin Lizzy, Black Star Riders, Lynch Mob)
Marco Mendoza shares his story of addiction and recovery. Now sober 26 years, he reflects on his life journey. From getting married at 16, and a father by twenty, to being homeless and addicted to drugs – he doesn’t hold back.
We also talk about his music career post recovery – and he explains the delicate dance of being in bands with David Coverdale and John Sykes at the same time, and his attempts to bring them back together (hint: he got VERY close).

Marco is an even better person than he is a musician and that’s saying an an awful lot! Having met him several times, he is always genuinely humble and gracious and takes the time to really engage in a meaningful conversation with fans – just a class act all the way. I’ll buy anything he plays on – he’s really one of the best!
