Kate Hudson - Glorious

 

Debut album from the Almost Famous actress

New project includes the single "Gonna Find Out"

She co-starred in one of the most famous modern movies about rock 'n' roll as Penny Lane, the embodiment of the rocker's muse and leader of the Band-Aids, in 2000's Almost Famous. But who knew actress Kate Hudson harbored a desire to rock a microphone and had a voice that was up for the mission?

She did.

"I wanted something that was sexy and delicious, vulnerable and strong, willing and fearless," Hudson says, of her album, Glorious. The 12-track album arrives May 17, 2024, following a pair of singles that dropped earlier this year. The Oscar-nominated actress also dropped the track "Gonna Find Out" in April.

"I wanted songs that could reach across all that, and that is a lot to cover."

"I'd say it doesn't seem real," Hudson said in a press release. "But the truth is: this is realer to me than anything I've done in my entire life. It was always this, I just needed to get to a place where I was ready... and the songs got to the core of who I am."

Hudson said she'd spent years "quietly making music and living inside the songs" before deciding she was finally ready to release music. Hudson worked with Johan Carlsson, Danny Fujikawa and Linda Perry on the music, though she is recording the music independently and distributing it through Virgin Music. Hudson took inspiration from Pearl Jam, Tom Petty, Madonna, and Joni Mitchell when creating the record.

Hudson previously dropped singles "Talk About Love" and "Live Forever" last month. The second track is about her son Ryder and the memories of his childhood and a "love letter" to parents.
