Alfie Hudson Taylor Announces New Solo Music + Irish Tour Dates!
Alfie Hudson Taylor Takes Center Stage as a Solo Artist, Unveiling Debut Single ‘Being In Love’
[March 5, 2024] – Nationally acclaimed as one-half of the chart-topping duo Hudson Taylor, Alfie Taylor is now embarking on an exhilarating solo chapter in his musical odyssey as Alfie Hudson Taylor. Renowned for his musical prowess and experiences touring with stellar acts like Jake Bugg, The Rolling Stones, and Hozier, Alfie has achieved chart-topping success in the UK and Ireland, amassing over 60 million streams globally and selling out tours.
Despite the duo’s global triumphs, Alfie faced the harsh reality of financial challenges, vividly illustrated by having -80 euros in his bank account on the day their sophomore album reached number one. Motivated by a deep-seated desire to shed light on the trials artists face in today’s music industry, Alfie made the audacious decision to step away from the brotherly partnership.
In October 2023, Alfie took the initiative to share his profound experiences and insights with the world through the release of the podcast ‘How To Break An Artist.’ This podcast not only served as a fountain of advice for emerging talents but also unveiled the untold reasons behind the conclusion of Hudson Taylor.
Now, Alfie Hudson Taylor stands on the brink of a solo career, unveiling his emotionally charged debut single, ‘Being In Love.’ The track serves as a poignant exploration of Alfie’s personal journey in a relationship with his partner. Reflecting on the song, Alfie articulates, “I wrote ‘Being in Love’ about my partner Gabrielle. It’s an attempt to describe the feeling of being in love.”
Recorded in Somerset, UK, ‘Being In Love’ is a testament to Alfie’s newfound confidence in pursuing his solo career. Collaborating with producer and confidant Luke Potashnick, the duo intentionally captured the raw, organic, and human essence of the music. Opting for live recordings with a band and adding layered strings afterward, they deliberately eschewed over-editing to preserve the authenticity of the sound.
Alfie Hudson Taylor is poised to captivate audiences with his distinctive sound and authentic storytelling. ‘Being In Love’ heralds the commencement of an enthralling solo journey for this remarkably talented artist. With unwavering dedication to addressing industry challenges, Alfie is poised to carve out his unique niche in the dynamic landscape of the music world.
