Glenn Hughes is one of those legendary rock musicians who when you speak his name to a group of musicians, they all drop everything and will have nothing but praise for. A veteran musician who has played with Trapeze, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Hughes / Thrall Band, Black Country Communion, and the Dead Daisies.
