Abram Wilson

Multi-award winning New Orleans trumpeter and vocalist, Abram Wilson, is one of the leading jazz trumpeters in the UK today. With trumpet playing reminiscent of Freddie Hubbard, Miles Davis, and Wynton Marsalis and the vocals of Sammy Davis Jr. and Chet Baker, Wilson has created a unique and captivating style of melodic compositions that swing and groove. Charismatic on stage and off, Wilson’s musicality exudes warmth, passion, virtuosity and soul.

Together with double bassist Alex Davis, Wilson will present a set of popular standards by some of jazz's most prolific performers including Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, John Coltrane and Sarah Vaughan.
