Hudson Taylor

I just stumbled onto Hudson Taylor the other day and man was I pleasantly surprised! There is not much like a really great Folk band. Everyone that knows me knows my fanatic obsession with Mumford & Sons and how pained I was to hear they are taking a hiatus, so I needed a new fix to get me through. Hudson Taylor may definitely be that band! Their music is toe-tappingly catchy but still heartfelt and honest, which are the elements I look for in any folk artist.


This Irish folk duo just released their latest EP last month, called Osea. Fun fact: The name Osea comes from the name of the island they recorded the EP on. Here is the video for the single off of the new EP called Care. This one is for any guy in love with a girl who is with the wrong guy, a.k.a. the worst feeling ever.


Earlier this year they also put out an EP called Chasing Rubies with 3 amazing tracks on it. These three songs got me HOOKED on these guys. If you were to add any music of theirs to your collection, let it be these! Unlike the Osea EP (for now) this EP can be found on Spotify. Make sure you check out all three songs! To wet your appetite, here is an acoustic performance of my personal favorite track from Chasing Rubies, Butterflies.


Hudson Taylor are currently on tour in the UK, but no word as to them returning to the states. If you would like to be the first to know when they plan to return, make sure you follow them on Facebook and Twitter or check their website for even more about the band!

Enjoy! <3
