Stampede 2016

While most may know Christian by his unique and memorable performances at numerous venues across Western Canada, others seem to know him by his philanthropy. This talented young man won the prestigious Calgary Stampede Talent Show last Summer (past contestants Kiesza and Paul Brandt), what was surprising to many was that he took his prize money of ten thousand dollars and donated it all to the local drop in centre. He was touched by the stories he was told by a few homeless that he had met one night just prior to the contests finale. His wonderful rendition of a ‘60s track by Nina Simone was what clinched it for Christian during the finals. His infectious originals have caught the ears of many in the industry that are now assisting his career. He was honored to receive 'The Spirit of Calgary' Award at the inaugural Vigor Awards for his generosity that has now spread to many of his fans. He will soon be touring Canada. upon the release of his first single on national radio. A great voice, a guitar and a loop station… Christian Hudson.
