Before performing Tom Petty's "You Don't Know How It Feels" in her final Instagram video, Hudson bantered with the audience.

"It's interesting in an intimate space because you're all staring at me. I'm used to my living room where no one is staring at me. Let's do it," she laughed, before requesting her cowboy hat.

Alongside the Instagram post, Hudson shared a caption looking ahead into the new year.

"Well, on the eve of a new year I say bring on 2024! I vow to sing and play and love and sing and love some more! 🎶 Life is too short to not lean in to the things you love. Art art and more art. Entertainment and places and outlets we can lose ourselves in. We need it and I’m here for it," she wrote.

"So here’s to looking forward and not backward. Love you all and hope you join me on this adventure cause a winds a blowing and I’m going with it ❤️ HAPPY NEW YEARS EVE! Please be safe and loving to all 💫 (thank you @hoteljeromeauberge for a Bad Harriet evening that was an absolute blast. To be in my hometown and have a first fun and joyous gig was dreamy)," Hudson added, shouting out the venue that hosted her musical debut.

Hudson first revealed her plans to record an album in April 2022 when shared a photo of herself on Instagram singing in a rehearsal space.

"Finally realized it's time to say f#%! it and saaaannngg!!!!! #albumincoming #myikigai 🎶 🎤" wrote the Fabletics co-founder in the post's caption, seemingly referring to music as her "ikigai," aka a Japanese concept that translates to "reason for being."

In December 2022, she discussed how the onset of the coronavirus pandemic helped put her musical ambitions into motion because she was determined to live her life with no regrets.

"You know, I had this thing [during] COVID ... Every time you're doing interviews, people are like, 'Do you have any regrets?' I go, 'I'm early 40s... not yet.' But during COVID, I was like, 'You know, what am I doing?' she said during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

She told host Jimmy Fallon that she's been a songwriter since she was 19, but "never shared" her work.

"I just thought that would be one of my great regrets. I have no expectations," said the actress/singer of her forthcoming project. "I just want to put a record out, and so I'm doing it. And I'm really proud of it. I can't wait."

At that time, she had noted that the album would be released in 2023.
