About this project
Who is Hudson Branch?
We are a band that has always been apt to do things on our own and with the help of those who support us. Never signed to a record label or recording contract of any sort, in the past 3 years we have made 3 EPs (The Hudson Branch, Music For Winter: Volume 1 & 2) and an LP(Tightrope Walker). We have toured the country extensively from Chicago to California and everything in between with our friends Dogs On Tour, and have collaborated with radio producers to create music for radio stories and multimedia projects.
All this we have done through the generosity and support of those who have enjoyed the art we make and have joined us in telling stories and making music.
Hudson Branch now has the opportunity to do something we never have before: venture out of our home studios and basements to record at Soma Studios in Chicago. Soma is run by veteran producer and musician John McEntire (Tortoise, The Sea and The Cake) who most recently has produced the new Broken Social Scene record. This opportunity comes as both an incredible surprise and a daunting task, so once again we ask for your help.
Please donate at any level so that we can give you all the best music we know how. All donations help and no contribution is too small... or too big.
