Chris Hudson of the musical
entertainment duo, Hudson & Saleeby, was born and raised in
Shelby, NC.
Thanks to his musically talented
mother, Chris started learning to play and sing at a very young
age and by age 7 was in formal training with a vocal coach. His
training continued through his "growing" years and that
incredible tenor quality with seamless movement from regular voice
to falsetto is the result of that training. When the young male
goes through puberty, the voice changes. Working with Chris during
that time, his vocal coach was able to make that change work to
Chris' benefit. When you hear him sing, you will know.
When Chris decided to go to
college, he thought that being a Dentist or a Veterinarian was
his calling. After several years of pre-Dentistry, his musical
background tugged at him and he ended up changing his major to
music. His degree came from the University of North Carolina at
Charlotte.
During that time at UNCC, Chris
Hudson was introduced to Doug Saleeby. Doug was also attending
UNCC and the soprano sitting between them in the University Chorale
introduced them. Deborah said, "Hey Chris, you should hear
this guy on my other side sing, he's pretty good". So, they
got to know each other and when they graduated, drove out to Las
Vegas to see what this entertainment business is all about.
