"Part mermaid, part chanteuse, part R&B and jazz singer (Artswatch)" Shelly Rudolph is a Portland-based vocalist, songwriter, and performer whose genre-defying work blends jazz, soul, and poetic lyricism into something entirely her own.

With a voice described as “equal parts sugar and whiskey” (All About Jazz), she moves fluidly between jazz, blues, and her original music—songs that are sensual, soulful, and deeply human.

Her work spans albums, live performance, and multidisciplinary collaboration, with music that invites connection, presence, and feeling.
