Europe UK Tour 2011 07/01/2011
Glenn Hughes UK Tour 2011 07/01/2011
![]() UK rock fans can expect a diverse selection of classic songs from Hughes’ extensive cannon, including Trapeze, Deep Purple, Hughes & Thrall and Glenn's solo albums. Hughes is best known for his highly distinctive style that effortlessly blends the elements of rock, soul and funk. He’s worked with everyone from Black Sabbath’s Tony Iommi, the KLF, members of the Red Hot Chili Peppers and is currently riding high with Jason Bonham, Joe Bonamassa and Derek Sherinian in hotly tipped rock supergoup Black Country Communion. Hailed around the world as one of the last of the truly great British classic rock vocalists, in 2010 Hughes sang with Heaven and Hell at the High Voltage festival in London as a tribute to Ronnie James Dio. Lifelong friends, Ronnie often cited Glenn as his favourite male singer, so it is only fitting the Voice of Rock sang in honour of the Voice of Metal. In keeping with the tradition of the classic British hard rock vibe that he has focused on with Black Country Communion, Glenn's solo touring band packs a harder, more direct rock approach than previous incarnations. The upcoming solo tour promises to be an exciting and powerful showcase for Hughes and his unstoppable band.
