CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY : JUDITH HILL : RISING STAR

Judith Hill.  Remember that name.

Born the daughter of a World-Renowned Classical Concert Pianist and a Legendary Funk Bass Player – both of whom currently play in their daughter’s band – Judith has all the chops to fill the shoes.  The look, the sound, the voice…the energy, stage presence.  I’m telling y’all – she’s the real deal.  Google her and you’ll see what I’m talking about.  Go see her perform and you’ll be a fan for life…you might even write a blog post about her!

So what’s on her resume??  Well.  Judith was chosen to be the lead female counterpart to MICHAEL JACKSON’s This is It Tour.  Like, the girl that duets on w MJ live, in concert.  That tour never came to pass, but holy hell…that’s pretty cool.  She was also a featured artist on the Academy Award Winning Documentary “20 Feet from Stardom” alongside the legendary Lisa Fischer (google her too).  Then there’s the fact that she worked as a backup singer for Stevie Wonder, was an opener for Josh Groban and John Legend AND was produced by the Artist forever beloved as Prince.  …and she was on The Voice on NBC.  …and well, just check her out.  All that and it’s important to note how grounded, kind and gracious she was in person.  A real deal class act.

Here are some pictures from the night that I shared the stage with Judith Hill and family.  Unforgettable and most likely the lead in to a future story of “I knew her when.”
