Rocker, balladeer, and author, Ian Hunter has a diamond-studded and matchless repertoire. As leader of 70s British rock legends Mott the Hoople, Hunter has been cited as an inspiration to the Clash, REM, Primal Scream, Morrissey, Motley Crue, and Def Leppard. As a hugely influential solo artist, he is widely revered as one of rock n roll’s most compelling performers and one of its most articulate songwriters.
