In a recent episode of The Voice, Kate Hudson left fans speechless with her captivating performance of her new single, Glorious
. The Almost Famous
star has typically been recognized for her acting prowess, yet it turns out she’s been hiding a significant talent all these years—her incredible vocal abilities.
Hudson’s debut album Glorious has already gained traction as one of the year’s most pleasant musical surprises. Speaking on her love for music, Hudson remarked, Music is my first love. I’ve been writing music my whole life but I just thought something I’d only have for myself.
The connection between Hudson and music extends back to her early days, fueled by her iconic role as Penny Lane in the 2000 film Almost Famous. As she shared, Cameron [Crowe] hired me because I love music…it was the easiest thing to see in that movie.
Despite having grown up surrounded by music due to the successful careers of her biological father Bill Hudson and ex-husband Chris Robinson from The Black Crowes, Kate took a methodical approach to finding her own voice. It wasn’t until recently that she decided to share this side of herself with the world.
Her engagement to musician Danny Fujikawa and co-writing efforts with Linda Perry on this album also showcase collaboration in its best form. Kate mentioned how fulfilling it was, saying, If I’m going to do it again, I want it to be a fun party.
Indeed, ‘Glorious’ stands out not only for its confident execution but also for its heartfelt melodies. This project has become a deeply personal reflection for her, highlighting what seems to be an undeterred passion for creating music.
Drawing influence from her idol Linda Ronstadt and other female rock legends like Stevie Nicks and Pat Benatar, Hudson’s sound incorporates elements from classic rock, country, and pop-rock. One track even brings forth an energetic vibe reminiscent of Ronstadt covering The Rolling Stones.
Hudson’s performance on The Voice reinforced not only her versatility but also provided a massive platform for showcasing her musical debut. As fans continue to react positively, one thing remains clear—this multifaceted artist isn’t going anywhere soon.
