Hunter gehörte den Ngarrindjeri, einem Stamm der Aborigines an. Im Alter von 16 Jahren traf sie auf ihren späteren Lebenspartner, den Songwriter Archie Roach. Beide arbeiteten fortan auch musikalisch zusammen.

Hunter war 1994 die erste Aborigines-Musikerin, die einen Plattenvertrag bei einem Major-Label erhielt. Zwei ihrer Alben, Thoughts Within und Feeling Good waren für den ARIA Award nominiert. Im Jahre 2000 wurde sie mit dem The Deadlys Award als beste weibliche Künstlerin des Jahres ausgezeichnet.

Hunter erlag den Folgen eines Herzinfarkts.
