The Vive Le Rock Awards is a truly unique, international event celebrating the legends of our music scene. This year the Vive Le Rock Awards will honour Chrissie Hynde, the primary songwriter and frontwoman for The Pretenders, with a much-deserved Icon Award. Chrissie Hynde has long been the embodiment of rock’n’roll cool; a woman of principles and a gifted songwriter with a voice that can melt hearts. Her pivotal role in the early days of punk saw her working with Malcolm McLaren & Vivienne Westwood, leading to musical involvement with the majority of punk’s key players, including even a brief stint in Johnny Moped’s band, before embarking on a multi-million selling rock career with smash-hit songs such as ‘Brass In Pocket’ and ‘Talk Of The Town’.
