Over her 20-year career, Judy Wexler has earned the reputation as one of the most compelling jazz vocalists on the West Coast. Known for her warm voice and affective interpretation of lyrics, her repertoire has been replete with songs that are off-the-beaten path. As Dan Bilawsky wrote on All About Jazz, “Judy Wexler is more than a mere singer of songs. She’s an actress, mood painter, song archaeologist, and vocalist par excellence.” Judy is a Billboard and JazzWeek charting vocalist who has headlined at jazz festivals, performing arts centers and leading jazz clubs both nationally and internationally. She was profiled twice on NPR Weekend Edition with Susan Stamberg, who said, “Based on the evidence, Judy Wexler can sing almost anything,” and was included in The Absolute Sound’s cover story, “13 Female Jazz Vocalists You Need to Hear.”
Her 7th album entitled No Wonder, released in early 2025 on Jewel City Jazz in collaboration with A-Train Entertainment, has been on the JazzWeek radio chart for over two months, currently in the Top 20 in jazz radio airplay across the US.
“No Wonder presents the divinely talented vocalist, Judy Wexler, and a cadre of L.A. A-listers in an overall bravura performance.” --Bebop Spoken Here (UK)
“A dozen dazzlers that speak to Wexler's sophisticated delivery… pure magic.” – All About Jazz
“Wexler is a confident vocalist who lets her jazz passion shine through, especially in her distinct phrasing. After listening to No Wonder, there is no wondering why Wexler has been garnering fine reviews over the years.” – Jersey Jazz
“Her nuanced performances create an immediate and profound emotional resonance. She finds colors and shadings the songwriters may not even have imagined. She is indeed a wonderment.” –Pop Culture Classics
