By the time I arrived at the venue, which was a mere 15 minutes before Hudson Taylor stepped onto the stage, the venue was already packed and that is what I call a sign of what was sure to be a fantastic night ahead.

Hudson Taylor is a little Irish band with fantastic spirit and a huge stage presence. Playing through popular songs from both Battles EP and Cinematic Lifestyle EP such as ‘Drop in the Ocean’, ‘Chasing Rubies’, ‘Cinematic Lifestyle’ and ‘Drop of Smoke’ among others. From the get go the boys had the entire captivated in their performance from their brilliant musicianship to their absolutely outstanding vocal abilities.

Band such as Hudson Taylor that are as original as these guys are hard to come by these day with everyone wanting to be in a band. However Hudson Taylor have taken everything that inspires them and created something completely different and unique that sets them apart from others in the industry.

With the internet being what it is today Hudson Taylor have been doing things right by gaining a strong online following using various platforms to promote their music. I don’t mean to sound really cliché but it’s safe to say for these guys the only way is up and I predict a long and amazing musical career ahead of them.

If you have not heard Hudson Taylor before I strongly recommend you check them out, they’re on just about all socail media platforms and you can get both of their EP’s on iTunes. Also be sure to go see them next time they are playing in a town near you. Much love, Life is Music TV.
