Glenn’s Chosen Years in UK
Glenn Hughes’ management has announced another leg of his Chosen Years tour — 8 dates in the UK in October 2025. Various presales seem to be already in progress, with general availability slated for March 7th. The powers that be want to steer your money towards the Ticketmaster, however we’ve also included some links to the alternative sources if you’d rather not deal with the cartel.
From the horse’s mouth:
So happy to announce I shall be with you in October for a series of shows. I will be performing songs from my new album coming this August and a selection of my solo catalog songs, in addition to collaborations with other artists, spanning my entire career. It’s always good to return home, to spend some time with you, and see your smiling faces.
Full details in our calendar.
Thanks to CTC and Daniel Bengtsson for the heads-up.

Who was in his band for the Orchestra dates he did recently? I believe Ash and Soren are slated for this tour, hope Ash will play a shorter drum solo. No Glenn, he is not the best F***in drummer you’ve ever worked with!
March 4th, 2025 at 20:22If you mean the Rock Meets Classic traveling music revue Big Ian has regularly populated in the past, Coronarias, then Glenn won’t have backing musicians (nor will he likely play bass himself), that will all be done by the Mat Sinner Band, my countryman Mat being the musical director of the whole thing.
And I agree that Glenn has had drummers in his bands I’ve liked better (I’m not saying that they were technically better or worse), Pontus Engborg among them, especially in the trio line-up with Doug Aldrich which was excellent and really gave the old Trapeze numbers new life.
