Brooklyn-based lofi-folk artist Hudson Freeman is inspired and forged by the DIY midwest. 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. After graduating school and waiting out a pandemic, he headed to Brooklyn, where things really began to stick. His music is shaped by a religious upbringing, grappling with moral absolutism, fleeting friendships, and navigating a search for belonging online.
