Kate Hudson announces debut album Glorious but is no stranger to singing as her acting credits reveal

Actress Kate Hudson, known to some for her roles in Cameron Crowe’s quasi-biopic “Almost Famous” and “You, Me and Dupree,” while to others known for her relationship with Muse frontman Matt Bellamy, has announced that she is to release her debut album later this year.

The daughter of Goldie Hawn and Bill Hudson confirmed the release of “Glorious” with a statement from the actress included in the press release stating: “I’d say it doesn’t seem real,” Hudson said in a press release. “But the truth is: this is realer to me than anything I’ve done in my entire life. It was always this, I just needed to get to a place where I was ready… and the songs got to the core of who I am.”

The announcement of the 12-track album was accompanied by the first single from the record, “Gonna Find Out,” on Wednesday (April 17 2024), alongside posting the album artwork and tracklisting on her Instagram page. Hudson previously dropped singles “Talk About Love” and “Live Forever” last month ahead of the announcement of “Glorious.”

“Glorious” is scheduled for release on May 17 2024
