The comedy single "What's Wrong With Huntly" was released through Virgin Records and reached No.37 on the New Zealand singles chart. Born Ian Hughes, the name Hugh Sundae came from 95bFM manager Graeme Hill nicknaming Sundae 'Hugh'. Sundae chose the surname 'Sundae' while "joking around" with the autocue at the TV3 news desk and wanting to pick a "really insane" newsreader name.〔 Sundae co-presented the TV2 music show ''Music Nation'' in 1995, along with the then up-and-coming musician Bic Runga. In 2000, Sundae joined the late-night TV3 series ''Ice As'', a reworked version of the long-running ''Ice TV'' series. He co-hosted the series with Petra Bagust and Jon Bridges until the series was cancelled in 2001. He went on to co-host TV2's live late night music show ''Space'' with Jaquie Brown. The pair left the show at the end of 2002. Sundae stepped into the role of breakfast host at 95bFM in 2002, a job he held for two and a half years before choosing to leave. After leaving 95bFM, he became an entertainment reporter at TVNZ, working on the ''Tonight'' late news show and current affairs show ''Close Up''. Sundae move to the UK in the mid '00s and worked as a director on ''Rockfeedback TV''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://johnsonlaird.com/assets/documents/1615/1615_mc_biography.pdf )〕 On returning to New Zealand, he worked as a reporter on TVNZ's ''20/20'' show.

Sundae also hosts a weekly show on Kiwi FM called ''Voices from the Wilderness'', which showcases unsigned New Zealand artists. Sundae co-founded the New Zealand Film Awards in 2012, along with New Zealand film industry figure Ant Timpson.
