Glenn Hughes Unveils “Voice In My Head” from Upcoming Album CHOSEN

July 13, 2025 rocknews

Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Glenn Hughes has officially broken his solo silence. After nearly a decade away from the studio spotlight, the Cannock-born icon has released “Voice In My Head”, the lead single from his upcoming album CHOSEN, due out September 5th, 2025 via Frontiers Music Srl. The track marks a powerful re-entry for Hughes, whose signature blend of hard rock, soul, and introspection remains as potent as ever.

A Song Born of Subconscious Reflection

“‘Voice In My Head’ tells the story of what’s goin’ on in my subconscious mind,” Hughes explains. “It’s a song that most definitely needed to be written. Very therapeutic. We all have ‘this voice.’ Observe, recognize and be a witness, & let go…”

The lyric video, now live on YouTube, pairs Hughes’ soaring vocals with evocative visuals, offering fans a glimpse into the emotional terrain of CHOSEN. It’s a track that doesn’t just rock — it resonates.

CHOSEN: A Return to Soulful Power

Produced by longtime collaborator Søren Andersen, CHOSEN is Hughes’ first solo album since 2016’s Resonate. The ten-track record explores themes of love, hope, faith, and acceptance — what Hughes calls “soul food” for the modern age. Written from a place of deep personal reflection, the album channels both the explosive energy of his Deep Purple days and the introspective depth of his solo catalog.

“Songwriting is deeply personal to me,” Hughes says. “I generally write and record when I have something to say. When writing CHOSEN, I went back to my life drawing board — writing about the human condition. My life is lived from within, in the present moment. Music is the healer.”

The Lineup Behind the Magic

CHOSEN features a powerhouse ensemble:

Glenn Hughes – Vocals, Bass
Søren Andersen – Guitar
Ash Sheehan – Drums
Bob Fridzema – Keys

Together, they’ve crafted a ten-track record that’s as technically sharp as it is emotionally resonant. From the introspective opener “Voice In My Head” to the swaggering “Hot Damn Thing,” the album promises a dynamic ride through Hughes’ inner world.
