Über Glenn

A skilled, well-traveled, and prolific English vocalist, bassist and songwriter best known for stints with Trapeze, Hughes/Thrall and Deep Purple, Glenn Hughes is often referred to as "The Voice of Rock." Starting out as the bassist and lead vocalist for English funk rockers Trapeze (which evolved from British soulsters, Finders Keepers) in 1969, Hughes earned his reputation as the bass player for Deep Purple from 1974 until that iteration of the group split in 1976. He went on to forge a successful and long-running solo career, releasing over a dozen albums, and in 2010 he began fronting the hard rock supergroup Black Country Communion, and later the like-minded California Breed. In 2016 he was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame alongside his Deep Purple bandmates, and in 2019 he joined Aussie-American hard rock supergroup, The Dead Daisies. 2025 sees Glenn appear live with orchestra based ‘classics’ rock shows in Europe, before returning to BLACK COUNTRY COMMUNION who head to Europe for live shows in early Summer, their first in over 10 years. It also sees him appear on new music from SATCHVAI and ROBBIE WILLIAMS. In late Summer, sees his return to solo live shows, his first for nearly 8 years, ‘The Chosen Years’ tour begins in Europe, which will see him introduce new songs from his first solo album in nearly 9 years, which gets it’s worldwide release just a few weeks earlier. So make no mistake. The Voice of Rock never left the building.
