From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Peter Bruntnell is a British singer–songwriter born January 26, 1962 in New Zealand. His 2000 album Normal for Bridgwater was highly recommended by VH1's Bill Flanagan[1] and by Rolling Stone's John Luerssen.[2] The album was recorded with the help of musicians of Son Volt, a band with whom he has toured regularly in the United States.[3]

Peter's great great uncle was Australian politician Albert Bruntnell who emigrated from Wales in 1888.
Peter is an avid sports fan and enjoys watching the Wales national rugby union team's and Tottenham Hotspur's matches.
