BIO
Hudson freeman is a brooklyn-based Lofi-folk artist, inspired and forged by the DIY midwest
Born to Evangelical missionaries, Hudson started writing songs upon a radical break at the age of thirteen when his family suddenly moved from the suburbs of Dallas to The Kingdom of Eswatini. The profound influence of INDIE big-hitters like Sufjan Stevens and Bon Iver as well as college years spent in Springfield, Missouri made a do-it-yourself midwesterner out of Hudson.
27-year-old Hudson Freeman continues to record and perform songs equal-parts resonant, reflective, and poignant. Hudson Headed to Brooklyn post-pandemic, and he has no intention of slowing down.
His newest viral demo, turned barnburner “if you know Me” was released on November 14th with a blown out cover of The Stones'/Flying Burrito Brothers' “WIld Horses” to boot.
Press Kit
(Hudson Freeman) is a folk artist
from the ashes of stomp-clap 2010's nostalgia americana, Folk music felt downright passé as Hudson Freeman began passing out his self-starter EP “A Man, ONe Day” around his college campus in 2016. BY 2020, however; not only was the world turned on its head just in time for graduation, singer-songwriter folk was back!
“I AM All the Ages I've Ever Been” (2021) marked the start of a new chapter. Hudson gave his music the signifier “LOFI FOLK” to capture the constellation of influences that piqued his interest as singer-songwriter production moved into the bedroom, post-pandemic.
Earlier this spring (2025), Hudson released a new album called “is a folk artist”. A disarmingly-distinct collection from a digital-age storyteller, it weaves issues of faith, belonging, and anxiety into a modern folk record that feels increasingly more monumental by the minute.
Much like the artists who inspire him like Sufjan Stevens, Pedro the Lion, Weed (pre-hotline TNT), Hudson Freeman finds himself at a uniquely turbulent coming-of-age moment. His music is shaped by a religious upbringing, grappling with moral absolutism, fleeting friendships, and navigating a search for belonging online.
