Hugo Jennings is a jazz pianist, singer and bandleader, orchestral conductor, teacher, and music curator. As with many of his gigs as a leader, he will be presenting a programme at Hampstead Jazz Club which showcases jazz’s rich history in an entertaining and informative way for the audience, whilst also including original compositions and arrangements.

Hugo has performed regularly at various jazz events, venues, and concert halls across London and Britain, such as Pizza Express Dean Street, The EFG London Jazz Festival, Battersea Power Station, the Clapham Grand, ExWide Jazz Club in Pisa, and has made appearances at the Edinburgh Fringe and toured cities including Valencia and Athens.

In addition to his performing as a jazz pianist and singer, Hugo also works as conductor of Social London Orchestra and the South London Jazz Orchestra. He has led his eponymous trio, featuring two shining talents in British jazz, Eleazar Ruiz on bass and Louis Brown on drums, for five years.
