Kate Hudson - Glorious (2024) [FLAC 24bit/48kHz] Download

Kate Hudson’s not sure what took her so long, especially with all the music whirling inside her. That hunger for musical expression from the woman who embodied the rocker’s muse in Almost Famous runs deeper. “I always felt connected to music. It was my outlet.” Natural and easy, there’s both self-examination and celebration flowing through her songs. She understands the phases of modern music in a way that’s fluid, but defined, honest, yet willing to leave it all at the door in the name of love.Kate Hudson spent much of her career orbiting the center of rock & roll so the transition from acting to singing doesn’t seem awkward in the slightest on Glorious, her debut album. Hudson spends the record on comfortable ground thanks to her chief collaborators Danny Fujikawa — the onetime leader of Chief and Hudson’s domestic partner since 2016 — and Linda Perry, the superstar producer who encouraged the actress to follow her dream of writing and performing music after hearing Hudson sing for a charity event at a school both their children attend. Perry’s schedule didn’t allow for her to complete Glorious, giving Hudson and Fujikawa the opportunity to work with Johan Carlsson, an associate of Max Martin who found success co-writing with Ariana Grande. Having two prominent producers as collaborators winds up putting the spotlight on Hudson herself, as her passionate, full-throated vocals — raspy without seeming ragged, powerful yet controlled — are the focal point throughout the record. Unsurprisingly for an actress who became a star playing Penny Laine, the chief “Band Aid” in Cameron Crowe’s album rock epic Almost Famous, Hudson is firmly rooted in classic rock, displaying clear debts to such ’70s titans as Linda Ronstadt and Stevie Nicks. The trick Hudson pulls off on Glorious is that her classicism never seems staid: it’s bright, lively, fresh and fun, tuneful, and knowing without succumbing to rote, respectful tropes of traditionalism. Part of the reason Glorious sounds so engaging is that she’s working with Perry and Carlsson, pop producers who are keenly aware of fashion but who also know Hudson isn’t gunning for the Top 40. Instead, the team knows how to give the insistent “Romeo” and pulsating “Fire” a New Wave sheen and how to let the power chords of “Gonna Find Out” settle into a blues-rock groove that’s as slick as it is earthy. Similarly, there are both dimension and depth to the quieter moments — “Live Forever” builds from a hushed acoustic guitar to a lovely shimmer of harmonies and strings — that emphasis emotion instead of overwhelming it. The suppleness of the production mirrors Hudson’s range — she not only adeptly handles the shifts in style and tone, but provides the music with a dynamic center. Perhaps Hudson is indeed a bit of a throwback to another era — not so much the ’70s as the dawn of the 2000s, when Sheryl Crow made this kind of colorful classic rock a radio staple — but Glorious shows she’s a rock star in her own right. – Stephen Thomas Erlewine
