Hudson Freeman with lots of hands at the Wonder Bar
2026-05-30 19:00 - 23:30 | The Wonder Bar, 1213 Ocean Ave N, Asbury Park, 07712
Hudson Freeman with lots of hands
with special guest Youbet
Hudson Freeman is a brooklyn-based Lofi-folk artist, inspired and forged by the DIY midwest. The 27-year-old Freeman continues to record and perform songs equal-parts resonant, reflective, and poignant. He has quickly emerged as one of indie’s most enthralling new voices. His recent full-length, is a Folk Artist, helped solidify his presence as the kind of songwriter unafraid to tackle life’s most draining contradictions: modern identity, digital disconnection, and faith. Born to Evangelical missionaries, Hudson started writing songs upon a radical break at the age of thirteen when his family suddenly moved from the suburbs of Dallas to the kingdom of Eswatini. The profound influence of indie big-hitters like Sufjan Stevens and Bon Iver as well as college years spent in Springfield, Missouri made a do-it-yourself midwesterner out of Hudson. Now, his song “If You Know Me” has started drawing in attention from the masses, catapulting Freeman into a wider spotlight than ever. It’s a moody blend of bedroom pop, folk, slowcore, and post-emo, stitched together by a singular guitar riff and mantra-style lyrics, confirming Hudson’s undeniable knack for melody.
