GLENN HUGHES To Appear At Hollywood's MUSICIANS INSTITUTE

January 26, 2007

Legendary vocalist/bassist Glenn Hughes (DEEP PURPLE, BLACK SABBATH, TRAPEZE) has been invited to appear at a private event at the Hollywood, California-based Musicians Institute.

The Musicians Institute is one of the world's most innovative professional music schools dealing with modern, commercial music styles. The school has had hundreds of immensely successful visiting artists come and perform for the students; artists such as Stevie Wonder, Edward Van Halen, Melissa Etheridge, Stanley Clarke and Chad Smith.

Glenn will play a couple of solo songs, answer some interview-style questions about his musical beginnings, collaborations/bands, songwriting process and his current work, and answer some questions from the students. This is NOT a clinic, but a chance for Glenn to discuss his success in music and to perform his songs for a young audience of aspiring musicians.

This event is free to all Musicians Institute students, and only Musicians Institute students can attend. This is not a public show. It takes place on Thursday, February 15 at 4:00 p.m. PST

In other news, Hughes will be interviewed on KNAC.COM this coming Monday, January 29 at 4:00 p.m. PST. There will be a live chat room setup, where fans can log in and ask questions directly.

As previously reported, Glenn Hughes will be the featured guest on the nationally syndicated radio show "Rockline" airing Wednesday, February 7. The live show begins at 8:30 p.m. PT / 11:30 p.m. ET, and fans are encouraged to call in with questions during the program at (800) 344-ROCK (7625).

Glenn Hughes' latest solo album, "Music for the Divine", will receive its long-awaited U.S. release on January 30 via Demolition Records. The CD, which is available now in Europe on Frontiers Records, was recorded in Chad Smith's house in Los Angeles and again features Smith on drums and longtime Glenn Hughes collaborator JJ Marsh on guitar. Also featured are RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS guitarist John Frusciante and Mark Killian, who has provided the string arrangements and keyboards.
