His debut album "Let Them Talk" was released in 2011. The album, which consists of classic blues songs, was recorded in Los Angeles and New Orleans.
"In my imagination, New Orleans just straight hummed with music, romance, joy, despair; its rhythms got into my gawky English frame and, at times, made me so happy and sad, I just didn't know what to do with myself," the concert organizers quoted Laurie as saying.
"Acting is largely about putting on masks, and music is about removing them," the actor was quoted as saying.
Hugh Laurie was first became well known as one half of the Fry and Laurie double act, along with his friend and comedy partner Stephen Fry. The duo than starred in the Jeeves and Wooster TV series adapted from P.G. Wodehouse's stories.
The international fame hit the actor when he played Dr Gregory House, the protagonist of the eponymous U.S. TV series.
Along with his TV career, Laurie is a vocalist and keyboard player for the Los Angeles charity rock group Band From TV, whose members are all actors from U.S. television series. In addition to piano Laurie plays guitar, drums, harmonica and saxophone, informs Interfax-Ukraine.
