Tony Visconti’s Unsigned Heroes

Tony Visconti’s Unsigned Heroes

Tony Visconti travels across the UK and Ireland to find the greatest undiscovered musical talent

Tony Visconti is one of the world’s most revered producers having worked with hundreds of artists including T Rex, Thin Lizzy and of course David Bowie.

In this 6 part series, Tony put together a special concert playing music from across his career. The twist was that the performers would be great unsigned talent who Tony believed deserved a bigger platform.

He was joined in his quest for powerful new music voices by Police drummer and composer Stewart Copeland and singer Imelda May. The final concert – filmed at the Union Chapel – also boasted guests including Bob Geldof and Heaven 17’s Glenn Gregory.
