Announcement – Yngwie Malmsteen – Glenn Hughes – Coming to the Strand
Written by Staff on August 8, 2023
Yngwie Malmsteen performs his greatest hits and Glenn Hughes performs a set of classic Deep Purple celebrating the 50th anniversary of the “Burn” album.
Yngwie Malmsteen is one of the World’s Premiere virtuoso guitarists. He has dominated the world of solo guitar for two decades. When he was barely 20, Yngwie exploded onto the music scene with his jaw-dropping technique of lightning-fast harmonic minor scalar riffing. His 1984 album, “Yngwie J. Malmsteen’s Rising Force,” established seemingly overnight the style now referred to a neo-classical melodic rock.
A legend in both style and technique, Yngwie’s long career reached new heights when his totally classical work for orchestra and solo electric guitar, “Concerto Suite,” was released, proving that his classical credentials were genuine. A respected musician among both his peers and his fans, Yngwie continues to play and compose at a level of mastery that many career musicians only dream of.
Glenn Hughes is an English musician best known for playing bass and performing vocals in funk rock band Trapeze and in the Mk. III and IV line-ups of Deep Purple, as well as briefly fronting Black Sabbath in the mid-1980s. He is known by fans as “The Voice of Rock” due to his soulful and wide-ranging singing voice.
