A skilled, well-traveled, and prolific English guitarist and bassist best known for stints with Trapeze, Black Sabbath, 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 the News) 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 that spanned a wide range of genres. 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. In 2019, he joined the Aussie-American hard rock supergroup the Dead Daisies. His 15th solo effort, the deeply personal Chosen, appeared in 2025.
