June 5th 2010 wrote: Jenny Hudson is an American Singer-Songwriter, Guitarist and Piano player. She’s set to tour with one of the top rock bands in the country in 4th Street Band and she lives in Manhattan with Lucy Tyrell a fellow musician. She grew up in a small town called Mountain View and she lived a pretty sheltered life there. “It wasn’t a party town like LA, It’s a very simple place to live, you know the kind, front porches and quiet streets.” She’s never seemed like she would become a member of a touring rock band, “I spent most of my youth in my room or down by the river bank reading a book or playing guitar, I was kind of a loner, I had friends but I was never hugely popular, I never went to parties or drank alcohol when I was in my teens, I just did what made me happy, I wrote songs, that’s what kept me sane, and as soon as I realised that I was never going to become famous living in Mountain View, I planned to move to a big city and New York was the first on my mind, I come from a pretty privileged family so that helped me finance a move to New York but I struggled initially.”
She’s recently been announced as a member of rock act 4th Street Band but she doesn’t posses any rock credentials, “It was a risk for Max to offer me a place in the band because their fans are very passionate and he knew they wouldn’t like a new member, they would have wanted it to stay the way it was but I’m in and the fans seem cool with that. I know I don’t have anything to do with rock music generally, I can play electric guitar but I’m not going to be busting out solo’s like Slash. I’ll be mainly playing Piano or Keyboards on tour because I’m more comfortable with that.” She has a few future plans, “I want to be seen as a solo singer-songwriter in the future and I want to release a solo album in the next two years, It won’t be rock music, it’s going to be pop music. I know pop music gets a bad reputation quite a bit but it’s not going to be all dance routines and auto tune, I won’t be having anything to do with those elements, It’s going to be me playing the guitar or the piano, singing, that’s basically it, I’m not a performing seal, I won’t do anything I’m uncomfortable with.”.
She recently went on holiday to Spain which was an experience, “I can’t begin to explain how amazing my time in Spain was, I just love their lifestyle, I’ll definitely be going back, I’d even consider moving there at some point in the future, It’s a really beautiful country.” She’s still currently single but she has had a bit of interest recently, “It’s like you join a rock band and you get offers straight away, Last year I was struggling to get known and I was single for most of the year, but now since I joined the 4th Street Band, I’ve had more offers in a couple of months than I’ve had in my life, I’m not going to jump into a relationship just because some people are interested, I’m like most young girls living in New York, I’m just trying to find my way, find a great guy, a cool apartment and have an awesome career, I’ve got my friends to see me through the lonely periods of my life and things are going really well for me right now.” >>> Catch her on tour from August to November with 4th Street Band |
