With unrivalled energy and stunning harmonies, these popular multi-instrumentalists have amassed a strong following. This is thanks to their ability to deliver a rousing set that delivers time and time again.
Firmly rooted in the busking scene, Hudson Taylor have gone from strength to strength, gaining critical acclaim at home and abroad. As such, brothers Harry and Alfie are no strangers to the hard graft of the music industry.
Starting out on Dublin’s Grafton Street, the pair have honed their musical talent to become a leading voice for a generation. By storytelling through song, they have gained millions of views online. Not only that, but their headline gigs sold-out in New York, Washington DC, and Boston.
Heavily influenced by the melodic greats of Simon and Garfunkel, Stills and Nash, Hudson Taylor bring a fresh twist to folk. There is a relaxed, acoustic-pop feel to their work, which has gained traction across the genres.
Such is their appeal, the lead single from their album 'Feel It Again' was one of the biggest Irish airplay hits of 2017. In the wake of their latest album, ‘Searching for The Answers’ released this summer, the talented duo have burst back onto the Irish market, with a string of dates across the country.
With the uplifting beats of ‘You, Me, Myself’ and ‘Hold Out Hope’ to the catchy ‘Over My Head,’ Hudson Taylor capture life through lyrics, building a strong connection with their audience. Penned during the pandemic, their latest work demonstrates a refined maturity that draws upon their folk/pop beginnings. The album is peppered with a positive, feel-good vibe. It is a coming home of sorts for the band as they go back to basics, a form of self-reflection through song.
A live performance with Hudson Taylor produces a musical chemistry that is unparalleled. With support from acoustic singer/songwriter Derek Ellard, who is renowned for his fresh take on folk/post rock music, this is set to be a gig of home-grown talent and stellar musicianship.
Doors open at 7:30pm on Friday, November 4. Tickets to Hudson Taylor are €24 and can be purchased here
