Kate Hudson Announces New Album, ‘Glorious,’ Shares ‘Gonna Find Out’
The album will arrive on May 17.
Having spent the last “glorious” year preparing, Kate Hudson could only call her dozen song debut one thing: Glorious.
From the commitment to writing songs to the exploration of what could be in the studio to the final mixes, what now seems an inevitable reality arrives fully formed on May 17.
“I’d say it doesn’t seem real,” says the Academy Award-nominated Hudson. “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.”
With the swirling track “Talk About Love,” and its recent Party Pupils remix, and the acoustic “Live Forever” teasing Glorious, BBC Radio 2 has premiered the guitars-forward “Gonna Find Out.” The slinky track about seeking sensual connection is available on all platforms. Check it out below.
Hudson reflected on the project, having said: “When it comes to talking about where this album comes from, the years I’ve spent quietly making music and living inside the songs, I’m not sure I’ll be able to stop talking about it. I’m just thrilled so many smart people want to talk to me about Glorious – and the process of making my first record.”
Independently recorded and realized, Hudson worked with Linda Perry, Johan Carlsson, and Danny Fujikawa to create a sound that manages to be both fresh and somehow familiar. Her deep love of music has been a driver in her life since childhood, which meant setting a very high bar for both execution and creating a project that reflects the woman she’s become.
“I wanted something that was sexy and delicious, vulnerable and strong, willing and fearless – and especially gloriously in love with the way life takes you on this journey if you’ll just show up and be open. I wanted songs that could reach across all that, and that is a lot to cover.”
