MUSIC & ALBUMS



Shawn Michael Hutchings - HUTCH is a singer/song-writer for over 30 years. Over the course of those years he has written & recorded hundreds of songs and has release 4 full length albums.
From the very first guitar lesson I took when I was 14, I’ve been writing music. For many, many years, writing songs has come naturally for me. Sometimes it took a while for the well to fill up, but there always seemed like the songs would come. As I have gotten older, I’ve found that the songs take more time to mature. Perhaps this is just something that happens with age, at least for me.
Below are four of my albums that I have released over the years. From my first album, ‘Hear Me Calling’, where it all began for me...to my present album, 'WE THE PEOPLE' 2020-21. All I can say is the journey has been deep and rich! I’ve loved every moment that I’ve put into creating these songs. Everyone of them has taught me something about music, myself, and the world. I hope you will find something that you can relate to and I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as I had making them!

Enjoy, Hutch

RIVER OF LIFE



I quit school to make this album. It was a labor of love, without the morning sickness! I set out to make an album that reflected where I was at this point in my life. I was exploring many different styles of music, which can heard on this record. I was also listening to artist like: Sting, Seal, Peter Gabriel, The Grateful Dead, and bunch of Irish music as well. To this day, I’m still proud of it.

HEAR ME CALLING



A long...long...long time ago... This is where it all began!!! I had a Fostex 4 Track Recorder and a Tascam DA-30 Digital Tape Recorder, and a whole lot of ideas. My brother and I shared a two bed room condo where I recorded this. I turned my bedroom into a make shift recording studio and stayed up late tracking it. I ended up putting the finishing touches on it at my parents house. Again, this was my first exploration into the world of recording. I didn’t realize until years later that I was recording this album much like how The Beatles recorded many of their earlier albums.
