Pete Hunter

Contains 6 performances.

Respected colossus of the Bristol scene for a number of years - both as performer and Poetry Can employee . Once controversially won Chelt'n'Slam with wordless 'Ode to Roger Moore' poem. Relocated to Southampton in new role as Apples and Snakes' first South-East Coordinator, and continues to make waves.

    Battersea Arts Centre (London - Wandsworth) (499)
    Actually a showcase of south-west artists, Elvis being A&S’s acting SW Coordinator at that time. Ian Sills was unbilled but memorably guested on Pete Hunter’s ‘Juicy Fruit & Cheesy Quaver’ rap. Maybe you had to be there…
