Hudson Stone is full-sending summer

Fronting Camp Rock 3 is only the beginning for this beachloving breakout star. Consider this his "Introducing Me"...

No one makes the most of a day off quite like Hudson Stone.

“First of all, I'm not going to sleep in super late, because I want to enjoy every second,” the 14-year-old says of his highly specific agenda.

After an 8:30 a.m. alarm, he'll put on his wet suit, hitch a ride in his family’s '66 Oldsmobile convertible, blast his summer playlist (feat. The Strokes) and head to the beach for hours of surfing and soaking up the sun. Then, he's finishing off the evening with seafood pasta (whipped up by his famous chef dad, Curtis Stone) and a movie.

When you take stock of the whirlwind year Hudson is having, you understand why he would have his precious free time planned to the minute (and you're honestly impressed he didn't just want to take a huge nap). Because the sched that comes with starring in a hit DCOM, playing festivals with your band and releasing your first single? It’s no joke.

“The average studio session is, like, seven hours. So even after a full school day, I'm usually in there until 10 p.m.,” he says, pausing as if he's realizing for the first time just how insane that sounds. “It’s actually nuts.” But in a good way, he assures us.

For a guy who now seems to be literally fused with his six-string (you'd be hard-pressed to find an IG post from Hudson that doesn’t feature his beloved Gibson), it’s tough to believe he started with an entirely different instrument.
