Hudson Moore has signed with APA Nashville.

“As a listener, I’ve always been equally drawn to the music, hooks and melodies as I have the lyrics,” says Moore. “Growing up listening to guys like Keith Urban and Vince Gill, I noticed the guitar was always at the forefront of their songs. That really stuck with me, and I think a lot of that sound has made its way into my music.”

“Hudson Moore is the perfect addition to the APA Nashville family,” commented Steve Lassiter, Partner and Head of Concerts, APA Nashville. “His instrumental dexterity and passion for creating music set him apart in this industry, and we’re very excited to have him join our growing roster.”

Moore is also managed by Shawn Pennington of Pennington Entertainment.
