Eric Garth Hudson (born August 2, 1937) is a Canadian multi-instrumentalist.
As the organist, keyboardist and saxophonist for Canadian-American rock group the Band, he was a principal architect of the group's sound.
Hudson has been called "the most brilliant organist in the rock world" by Keyboard magazine.
