Glenn Hughes, Jason Bonham form new group

Veteran rockers Glenn Hughes and Jason Bonham have teamed with newcomer Andrew Watt to form new band California Breed.

Rock veteran Glenn Hughes and one-time Led Zeppelin drummer Jason Bonham have reteamed to form a new band, called California Breed.

The two rockers previously worked together in Black Country Communion with guitarist Joe Bonamassa, but when that group disbanded in 2012, the former Deep Purple star and Bonham, the son of late Led Zep musician John Bonham, pledged to work together again.

Now, they've teamed up with 23-year-old newcomer Andrew Watt, who Bonham has dubbed a "white Jimi Hendrix", for their latest venture.

The band is working on a debut album, which is tentatively scheduled for release in May.
