The Hunt was a Canadian rock band formed in 1977, mostly made up of members from another Canadian rock band Dillinger. After Dillinger broke up, guitarists Paul Dickinson and Paul Cockburn, drummer and percussionist Paul Kersey, keyboard player Jacques Harrison, keyboard player and bass guitarist Gerry Mosby, bass guitarist Carl Calvert, and guitarist and bass guitarist Brian Gagnon all eventually were in The Hunt. Most members also sang. Producer Steve Vaughan joined the band for two of the albums. Carl Calvert played bass guitar on the album Thrill of the Kill in place of Brian Gagnon. After having success in Canada but not much in the U.S., the group disbanded in 1984.[1]
After the first album, which was released by GRT Records in Canada, the band's popularity waned. Mosby left to play bass guitar for the band Rheingold. By 1978, both Harrison and Cockburn had also left.[2]
