Hugo Gears Up To Release Debut Album “Old Tyme Religion”
Roc Nation’s “gangsta-rocker” Hugo, will release his highly-anticipated debut album Old Tyme Religion on May 10th. To coincide with the launch of the album, Hugo will perform on The Late Show with David Letterman. The British-born, Thailand-raised rocker will be on tour this Spring for a headline tour beginning April 11th and then joining Augustana and The Maine on tour kicking-off May 12th in Dallas, TX.
Following the buzz-worthy success of “99 Problems,” in which both the song and Hugo were featured in the box-office hit No Strings Attached starring Ashton Kutcher and Natalie Portman, the album is a refreshing and brilliant blend of rock, pop and soul with hip-hop influences. With Old Tyme Religion, Hugo introduces a new audience to multiple international influences, style and true soul through well-crafted lyrics and contemporary music.
“I’m trying to make rock & roll in the age of hip-hop,” Hugo affirms. “A complete thought in 3 minutes and 30 seconds, that’s the challenge. A song is a planet with gravity and atmosphere and things living in it. An album is a solar system. All songs on this album are about two things; love and fear.”
Hugo made his national television debut with “99 Problems” on Jimmy Kimmel Live last fall and his sexy power-groove “Bread & Butter” has been featured on Entourage, CW’s 90210, ABC’s Castle and Victoria’s Secret’s 2010 Swim Campaign.
