A Tottenham-residing Glaswegian, David Hutcheon has been MOJO’s world music correspondent since 1996, reporting from Agadez, Faʻaʻā, Kyzyl, Sana’a, Tegucigalpa and Tessalit. He edited the TV section of The Sunday Times for 25 years, modelling it on the Neil Spencer-era NME, but quit in 2022 to focus on going to gigs (120 in 2023) and travelling the world by train in search of rare Small Faces singles. Tinariwen’s Ibrahim Ag Alhabib says likes him because he never asks difficult questions.
