The rock legend will play three shows in the country, including stops in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney.
For concerts on his third tour of Australia, Hughes will play dual sets: the first, an intimate acoustic solo set, followed by a full-on electric performance.
Fans can expect tracks from Hughes’ extensive and distinguished career, including music from his work time with Deep Purple, Black Country Communion and songs from other solo projects.
Opening the shows will be up and coming Melbourne rockers Massive.
Tickets go sale Thursday, April 14 at 9:00 am.
Beyond the concerts, Glenn will be dropping by Readings Books (Carlton) on Tuesday 23rd April at 5pm where he’ll be signing copies of his autobiography; he’ll also do a spoken word “storyteller” evening at the Whole Lotta Love Bar in East Brunswick in Melbourne on April 23.
