Rock icon Glenn Hughes is back with a brand-new studio album, Chosen, scheduled for release on September 5, 2025, via Frontiers Music Srl.
To celebrate the announcement, Hughes has unveiled the album’s title track, accompanied by a new music video, both available now.
In support of the release, Glenn will embark on “The Chosen Years” tour, which kicks off on September 2 in Zoetermeer, Netherlands, and wraps up on November 29 in Bogotá, Colombia, with dates across Europe and South America.
Speaking about the new album, Glenn said: “Songwriting is deeply personal to me, and l generally write and record when I have something to say. It’s been nine years since I recorded my last solo album, Resonate. There have been recordings and collaborations with other artists since 2016″
“When writing ‘Chosen’, I went back to my life drawing board, writing about the human condition, love, hope, faith and acceptance. I write about how I feel on the inside and not externally. My life is lived from within, in the present moment. It’s an album of soul food, and I’ve never been so grateful, right here, on planet earth. Music is the healer.”
Hughes is a true original. No other rock musician has carved such a distinctive style blending the finest elements of hard rock, soul and funk. That astonishing voice is his calling card. He’s known as a singer’s singer. Stevie Wonder once called Glenn Hughes his favorite white singer.
After a nine-year hiatus as a solo artist, Hughes is back with Chosen, his brand-new solo record: an album which presents Glenn in his most hard rockin’ fashion. An explosive record that offers Glenn at his absolute best with a state-of-the-art album, both from a songwriting and production standpoint.
