Rock legend and Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductee Glenn Hughes returns with his new studio album, "Chosen", set for release on September 5, 2025 via Frontiers Music Srl.
To mark the announcement, Glenn has shared the title track, along with an accompanying music video, available now.
This year will also see Hughes busy touring across Europe and South America, with "The Chosen Years" tour starting in Zoetermeer, Netherlands, on September 2 and ending on November 29 in Bogota, Colombia.
Commenting on the new album, Glenn stated: "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.
