I, The Hunter

I, THE HUNTER are a Rock and Roll band. Mixing the sound of the music each member grew up with and still loves to this day, with their favourite parts of the modern hard rock scene, I, THE HUNTER are here for the fun of it all, not the glory. Formed by cousins JOHNNY SHOTGUN (ex-THIS SHOTGUN KISS and INANE EMINENCE) and Ryan, now aka RY, THE HUNTER (ex-THIS SHOTGUN KISS) in early 2008, the project started as nothing more than the two writing fast paced 80's influenced rock songs as a bit of fun.

Fables Last Stand

Newcastle has a history for hard rock talent. From The Animals to The Tygers Of Pan Tang, AC/DC's Brian Johnson to Dire Straits' Mark Knopfler, the city famous for football and Brown Ale has always boasted a heaving underbelly of guitar-based grit. Now you can add Fables Last Stand to that heady mix of ear blasting brilliance. Born out of a love for GN'R, Led Zep and the Crue, these Geordie kings of bar room sleaze bring back classic rock with a menacingly modern twist.
