Listen To Some New Ian Hunter
Hear the title track from his forthcoming new album
Hunter releases the new album, When I'm President, on 3 September.
"The songs seem to be more upbeat this time round,” Hunter notes. "The last two albums were pretty political, just because I thought the Bush years were horrible, and thankfully that’s passed. But I don’t go looking for songs; I have to wait for them to come to me. I had a spurt there in the summer of 2011, and that grew into this album. I’d get up every day with something ringing in my head, so I’d try to catch it and get it down. Songwriting’s always been a mystery to me in that way. Now and again you’re nearer the sun, and you have to be ready to capture it.”
The album is the follow-up to 2009's Man Overboard.
