A versatile guitarist with a sound of his own, Brian Hughes creates unclassifiable music that is both accessible and at times adventuruous. He grew up in Alberta, Canada and studied at Grant McKewan College in Edmonton and the Banff School of Fine Arts. In 1981 he moved temporarily to Los Angeles where he studied at the Guitar Institute. In 1987 Hughes relocated to Toronto. Since then Brian Hughes has recorded as a leader for Justin Time, accompanied and produced harpist Loreena McKennitt and worked in the studios. ~ Scott Yanow
