Original Stranglers Front Man Hugh Cornwell Tours The U.S. This Spring 2010

New York (Top40 Charts/ Girlie Action Media & Marketing) - Hugh Cornwell is a man with equal parts grit and wit. He has been an acclaimed writer and live performer since his time as the primary songwriter, singer, and guitarist of punk and new wave legends The Stranglers. His recently released eighth album, Hooverdam, is an eloquent and exciting mix of rhythm & blues, rock and post-punk. Hugh will also cross the Atlantic this Spring and treat his US fans to his fiery live show.

Though he may be one of the UK's finest talents, Hugh's music has always reached far beyond his homeland. Fittingly, Hooverdam is now available worldwide from his website https://www.hughcornwell.com, which can be viewed in twelve languages (English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Farsi, Russian, Mandarin, Turkish, Italian and Japanese). The album is available as a free download here and can also be purchased on vinyl and as a triple-sleeved digi-pak CD/DVD, featuring both album and film in one package.

The upcoming US tour includes a performance in San Francisco as part of the Jay Siegan Presents 'In The Name Of Love', a series of concerts to raise money for the Haiti relief effort. Hugh will be playing along with special guest Kristeen Young at San Francisco's Red Devil Lounge on March 31st. A percentage of ticket sales will be donated to international medical humanitarian organization Doctors Without Borders for the victims of Haiti.
