The songwriter behind The Stranglers comes to The Met.

Golden Brown, Strange Little Girl, Always the Sun, Peaches, No More Heroes, Nice and Sleazy… sound familiar?

All big hits, all great songs, all written and sung by Hugh Cornwell, the songwriter behind The Stranglers.

“Just strap on your guitar and we’ll play some rock and roll”. You can’t miss it. The Hitman is back.
