Hugh Laurie Tickets

About Hugh Laurie

Following the huge success of his debut album 'Let Them Talk' we are proud to announce that Hugh Laurie will release his second album 'Didn't It Rain' on 6th May. A US release will follow in September.

Recorded at Ocean Way Studio in Los Angeles 'Didn't It Rain' sees Hugh Laurie depart the sounds of New Orleans as he follows the trajectory of the blues upstream and into the American heartland.

The album will be available to pre-order in the UK from 25th March.

In support of this release Hugh will also be undertaking an eight date UK Tour in June.

"Let Them Talk” is the first album to be recorded by Hugh Laurie after signing to Warner Bros Records in 2010. Produced by Joe Henry and recorded in Los Angeles and New Orleans, the album is a celebration of New Orleans blues, a genre that drives Hugh's musical raison d'être.

Spiritually inspired by similar genre albums like Ry Cooder's 'Buena Vista Social Club' and T-Bone Burnett's 'O' Brother Where Art Thou' soundtrack, Hugh's 'Let Them Talk' recordings bring together an extraordinary selection of heritage tracks, renowned musicians and vocal legends to champion this much neglected body of work.

Hugh Laurie drives the whole album on piano and vocals and is joined in the studio by the 'Queen of New Orleans' herself, Irma Thomas, blues piano and horns supremo Allen Toussaint, vocal legend Sir Tom Jones and in an especially momentous collaboration on 'After You've Gone' by his lifelong hero Dr. John.

Released on May 9th in Europe, the album launch will be supported by live shows in London, Paris and Berlin and a television special following Hugh's musical journey to New Orleans and featuring the performances of much of the album filmed at Kingsway Studios in the French Quarter along with Hugh's band and his incredible collaborators.
