Judson Hurd was born in Blairsville, GA in 1984. His family moved to Paraguay, South America as missionaries when he was a year old.

He taught himself to read music, playing Bach Inventions at the young age of 4. When his family moved to a bigger city, Judson began his formal training at the Franz Schubert Conservatory of Music. He continued his studies at Young Harris College, and later at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, studying jazz, music theory, and piano performance. Judson is now a composer in many styles and genres for TV, Film, and other media. His music has been compared to Max Richter, Olafur Arnalds, and Nils Frahm. Judson has recently passed 5,000,000 streams on Spotify and is consistently releasing music via his label Bad Architect Records.
