Fingers Crossed

Ian Hunter's latest studio album, Fingers Crossed, unveils ten new, self-penned songs including his much-anticipated homage to David Bowie "Dandy". Recorded at HOBO Studios in New Jersey, and co-produced by Hunter and Andy York, the record features his magnificent Rant Band and is the follow-up to 2012's acclaimed When I'm President.

As leader of '70s British rock legends Mott the Hoople and as a hugely influential solo artist, Ian Hunter is widely revered as one of rock'n'roll's most compelling performers and one of its most articulate songwriters. As author of such immortal anthems as, "All The Way From Memphis", "Once Bitten, Twice Shy" and "Cleveland Rocks" and the voice of such landmark albums as, "All The Young Dudes", "Mott", "Ian Hunter" and "You're Never Alone With A Schizophrenic", he remains a hero to fellow musicians and fans around the world.

The compositions on Fingers Crossed see Hunter covering typically wide-ranging subject matter. "Dandy", his fond tribute to David Bowie reflects on a relationship cemented in 1972 when Bowie produced Mott's album All the Young Dudes and provided its hit title track.
