Paul Hughes hales from Manchester, England. Born with an innate talent and passion for Jazz/Swing, his performances bring to life the timeless melodies of legendary singers from the past: Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin, Tony Bennett, Frankie Valli, Dean Martin and Nat King Cole, enveloping the audience in an atmosphere of elegance and timeless music – much needed beauty for today’s world. “During my forty-five professional years in this business, I’ve worked with many singers. It is very rare that a singer can validate a song with such ease and perfection as Paul Hughes. Songs literally come alive when Paul performs them.”–Byron Hill, Nashville songwriter I believe to be a great jazz singer you need to have an instrumental approach to the voice like Sinatra did. Paul does this with impeccable phrasing and rhythmic subtlety, which makes him a tremendously stylish storyteller!
