Claude Hall
"August Afternoon"

Impacting: June 20 2019

Format(s): Jazz

 
 
 

 

Originally from NY, Claude Hall lived in Paris for 17 years where she developed her love for jazz. From there, she’s performed internationally, holding sold out residencies in St. Barths and Los Angeles, where she now lives.
 

As an award-winning songstress, her performances evoke the cabaret divas of days gone by.  Influenced by jazz greats Nina Simone, Ella Fitzgerald, Nancy Wilson, and Eartha Kitt, her interpretations of the standards invite her audience to enjoy them with renewed interest.

In her debut EP, Claude Hall also debuts as a songwriter. Reminiscent of Fats Waller, her self-penned title track, August Afternoon, reveals her capacity to paint vivid imagery, drawing the listener into her world as she does in her live shows.

Reviews:
 

“When Hall sings she displays the elegance of Lena Horne, the crisp enunciation of Eartha Kitt, and a breathy, sensual quality all her own that adds power and oomph to her performance.”    - Elliot Zwiebach for Cabaret Scenes
 

“Hall presents her live music like an actress reciting a jazz monologue on Broadway. She often enhances her contralto range with a tantalizing brand of jazz phrasing.”  
 - Miguel Costa for Music Connection Magazine

After a run of sold out performances at the Baked Potato, Vibrato, and Feinsteins at Vitello’s, Claude Hall’s debut EP, August Afternoon, hits the top 10 list of streamed and downloaded releases.

With her tone reminiscent of Billie Holiday and an essence that echoes Lena Horne, Hall’s rendition of “I Chose the Moon”, by Mark Winkler and Bill Cantos, tops the streams getting international attention.

Claude Hall is currently working on her next album which will be a compilation of her own original music as well as classic jazz songs reimagined to reflect the diaspora of her musical influences.

“…Hall returned with one of my favorites "Little Girl Blue". She really made the lyrics come alive and it was difficult not to fall right in with her emotionally.”  - Don Grigware for Broadway World
 

“Hall presents her live music like an actress reciting a jazz monologue on Broadway. She often enhances her contralto range with a tantalizing brand of jazz phrasing.”  
 - Miguel Costa for Music Connection Magazine
