Sip & Sound — An End of Summer Music Series at Style Pop Café

Rai Hudson is a powerhouse performer, musician, and producer whose bold, androgynous style and electric stage presence make him a standout in every space he enters. A former American Idol contestant, Rai has since built a multifaceted career that spans music, theater, and visual storytelling. His original work blends soul, pop, rock, and cinematic flair, and he’s composed music for film and television through partnerships with Warner Chappell and MidCoast Music.

But Rai’s artistry doesn’t stop in the studio. He’s a dynamic live performer with a deep love for theatricality. He’s lit up the stage at Milwaukee’s renowned Skylight Music Theatre in hit productions like Xanadu and Sister Act, showcasing his versatility as both a singer and actor. Trained under legendary choreographer Frank Gatson Jr., Rai brings high-caliber movement and showmanship to every performance.

A beloved figure in Wisconsin’s LGBTQ+ and drag communities, Rai infuses his work with fearless creativity and unapologetic queerness. As co-producer of vibrant, inclusive shows like Vaudeville Vixens Burlesque and Caba-Rai, he fuses live music, drag, dance, and burlesque into unforgettable celebrations of self-expression and liberation.

At Style Pop Cafe, Rai is set to electrify the space with his signature blend of glam, grit, and heart—delivering a performance that’s as unforgettable as it is unapologetically authentic. This is more than a show—it’s an experience.
