Irish duo Hudson Taylor, made up of brothers Alfie and Harry, start 2018 on a high with the release of new single ‘Run With Me,’ the follow to their 2017 comeback single ‘Feel It Again,’ produced by Ryan Hadlock (The Lumineers and Vance Joy) and mixed by Ruadhri Cushnan (Mumford & Sons/Ed Sheeran). ‘Feel It Again’ was a huge hit in their native Ireland, reaching #1 on the Irish iTunes Singer Songwriter chart for 12 weeks running and now at two million streams combined. ‘Run With Me’ is an instantly melodic slice of americana-inflected pop, whilst the video features Alfie and Harry in their native Ireland taking a visit to the Dogs Trust, whom the band partnered with in the making of the video.

Speaking about the video the band said: “'Run with Me' is about those friends that are by your side at all times and lift you up whatever you're going through. Dogs are often that exact type of friend for people and we wanted to make a video that was uplifting and fun but also delivered the message that there are so many dogs in shelters and rescues around the country that just need loving homes. We absolutely loved making this video and we hope people not only enjoy watching it but also consider giving a rescue dog a home and having that dog give them their unconditional love and friendship in return.”

Suzie Carley, the Executive Director at Dogs Trust, said: “We are thrilled to join up with Irish folk duo Hudson Taylor for the launch of their fantastic new single, Run With Me! Both Alfie and Harry are huge dog lovers so we were delighted to welcome them to our Rehoming Centre recently, where they shot some scenes for their brand new music video and met some of our beautiful furry residents! It’s so important to raise awareness about adopting instead of buying a dog so we were delighted that the boys asked us to be a part of spreading this message through their video. We all had an amazing experience working with Alfie, Harry and their wonderful team – especially our dogs, who couldn’t resist lots of cuddles and kisses in between takes!”
