Judith Owen to play Bush Hall on Monday 1st June

Lauded vocalist and jazz legend Judith Owen will be performing at Bush Hall in Shepherd’s Bush on Monday, 1st June 2026, following the recent release of her album Suit Yourself on Twanky Records.

The album offers the full Judith Owen experience and continues her journey into Jazz and Blues, with the artist exploring and mining lesser-known gems of these genres, turning them into musical powerhouses. A beautiful blend of jazz, blues and big band, the album especially shows off Judith’s inimitable sound and personality. It combines the joyous swagger of her wildly successful Come On and Get It (2022); the hi-octane sounds of her 2024 love letter to big band, Judith Owen Swings Christmas; the live power of Comes Alive and her own emotionally intoxicating songwriting and arrangements.

Tickets for the concert are priced at £33 (plus transaction fee) and can be bought online at bushhall.seetickets.com/event/judith-owen/bush-hall/3598334.

The new album by Judith Owen, Suit Yourself

The album features Judith’s band, The Gentlemen Callers, along with the JO Big Band and special guests Davell Crawford, Joe Bonamassa and the Tonya Boyd-Cannon Choir. The Gentlemen Callers are David Torkanowsky on Piano, Kevin Louis on Cornet/Trumpet, Ken Warshawsky on Double Bass, Grammy Award-winning Artist/Producer Jamison Ross on Drums, David Blenkhorn on guitar and Ricardo Pascal on Sax.

Whether solo at the piano, accompanied by her jazz sextet or her contemporary big band, Judith’s rich, mellifluous voice seduces, and her interpretations thrill on songs like Aretha Franklin’s Evil Gal Blues, Nellie Lutcher’s For You My Love, and Etta James’s Since I Fell For You. Of special note is her duet with New Orleans luminary Davell Crawford on Today I Sing The Blues as well as the first single, the sexy and sophisticated,  That’s Why I Love My Baby.  Maestro Joe Bonamassa adds blistering guitar on Mind Is On Vacation while the Tonya Boyd-Cannon Choir joins Judith to bring it all back home on the Gospel-inflected Inside Out.

Recorded at the Esplanade Studios in New Orleans, the album has been produced by Judith herself, with the track Inside Out co-produced by Owen and Jamison Ross. Suit Yourself was also mastered in New Orleans by Misha Kachkachishvili and engineered by John Fiachbach, both Grammy Award winners. The full track listing can be seen below:
