Just before starting his “GLENN HUGHES PERFORMS CLASSIC DEEP PURPLE LIVE –2018 U.K. Tour, Glenn Hughes, the former bassist and singer of Deep Purple, known to millions as the Voice of Rock ‘N’, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, and the current front man for rock super group Black Country Communion, announces a new set U.K. tour dates for 2019, including a night at the Liverpool 02 Academy on Hotham Street on Thursday 23rd May.
The eight date U.K. 2019 tour promise to be a dynamic, turn-back-the-clocks, two-hour live extravaganza homage to his tenure in MK 3 and MK 4 incarnations of Deep Purple – one of music history’s most seminal and influential rock and roll groups.
“I’m excited to be touring the “Classic Deep Purple Live” in the U.K. in May 2019. I first toured Classic Deep Purple Live in Australia and New Zealand last year and it went down like a storm. We’re currently touring a first set of dates in the U.K. and are looking forward for a second round in 2019“, says Glenn Hughes.
Deep Purple took a quantum leap when the then 20-year-old Glenn Hughes was seconded from British funk-rock outfit Trapeze in mid-1973. As bassist and co-vocalist (with David Coverdale), he helped steer the legendary rock group in the progressive direction of Burn (1974), Stormbringer (1974) and Come Taste the Band (1975), while touring the world for three years.
