James Hudson

10:45 pm on Thursday 10 Jul 25


British jazz vocalist James Hudson is a singer at the top of this game who epitomises the 21st century crooner. A captivating and charming performer who has two critically acclaimed albums under his belt.

Having recently sold out his first two shows at the world renowned Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club in London, James is in demand at Europe’s most respected jazz clubs and festivals. James has travelled all over the globe to sing – performing in The Bahamas, Sicily, Spain, India, Norway, Egypt, Switzerland, Malta, France and a 2 week residency at the distinguished Hotel De Paris in Monte Carlo.

James has taken great inspiration from the likes of Frank Sinatra, Mel Torme, Tony Bennett, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole and Sarah Vaughan. Much of his repertoire is inspired by these artists and the timeless music of The Great American Songbook, with his own take of some more modern songs thrown in.
