Rock legend Glenn Hughes, known to millions as the “Voice of Rock”, is hitting the road next spring with his highly anticipated “The Chosen Years” U.S. tour. The former DEEP PURPLE bassist and singer, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, and current frontman of BLACK COUNTRY COMMUNION, will perform a series of shows celebrating his five-decade-long career.
The tour kicks off March 27 at The Coach House in San Juan Capistrano, California and concludes May 10 at The Marquee in Tempe, Arizona. Hughes promises fans a two-hour live experience packed with classics and new material alike.
“Looking forward to seeing you, on my next tour, in spring 2026,” Hughes said. “A new show with good vibrations, to carry the message that ‘music is the healer’. I’ll see you down the front!”
Fans can expect a setlist spanning Hughes’ legendary career, featuring songs from TRAPEZE, DEEP PURPLE, HUGHES/THRALL, IOMMI/HUGHES, and BLACK COUNTRY COMMUNION, along with tracks from his latest solo album, Chosen, released on September 5 via Frontiers Music Srl.
Joining Hughes on stage will be Søren Andersen on guitar and Ash Sheehan on drums. Together, the trio will bring a dynamic, high-energy performance that both celebrates Hughes’ past and showcases his latest work.
