• Glenn Hughes is a true original. Vocalist, bass guitarist, and songwriter, Hughes has spent decades crafting a sound that uniquely blends hard rock, soul, and funk — all powered by his astonishing vocal range and style. Often referred to as a “singer’s singer,” he once earned the praise of Stevie Wonder, who called him his favorite white vocalist.
• Born in Cannock, England, Hughes grew up influenced by British hard rock, the Beatles, and — most of all — American soul and R&B. Motown and Stax/Volt left a deep impression on him, helping form the foundation of his musical identity.
• Hughes rose to fame in the early 1970s with the band Trapeze, before joining Deep Purple in 1973 during a pivotal moment in the band’s history. With Hughes and David Coverdale stepping in for Ian Gillan and Roger Glover, Deep Purple released the landmark album Burn in 1974 — a rejuvenation of the band’s sound that stands as a classic. His contributions to Stormbringer and Come Taste the Band further solidified his legendary status.
• Following Deep Purple’s split in 1976, Hughes began a long and prolific solo career starting with Play Me Out in 1977. In 1982, he teamed up with Pat Thrall for the acclaimed Hughes/Thrall project. Over the decades, Hughes made countless appearances on albums by artists like Gary Moore, John Norum, and Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath.
• From the 1990s onward, Hughes launched a prolific solo run and formed several notable bands including Black Country Communion (with Joe Bonamassa), California Breed, and The Dead Daisies.
• Now, after a nine-year hiatus as a solo artist, Glenn Hughes returns with Chosen — a hard-hitting new studio album that presents him at his most explosive and inspired. Produced by Glenn Hughes together with his longtime collaborator Soren Andersen, Chosen is a masterclass in powerful songwriting and production. It’s Glenn Hughes at the peak of his craft: bold, loud, and unforgettable.
