Matt Hutchison is an unapologetic, pure pop offering. Always looking for ways to do more with less, Matt is endlessly searching for unique melodies and turns of phrase, weaving them into simple arrangements, the marriage of which delivers to his listener an accessible piece of art. Much like the man himself, Matt Hutchison’s music is outwardly affable and charming. However, there really is more there than meets the eye (and ear). His music is an invitation into deep conversation over a bottle of the good stuff. He’d prefer cheap whiskey, but if it’s wet, he’ll drink it.
Matt’s music has recently been compared to Crowded House, Squeeze, and Elvis Costello.
“He takes you on a rollercoaster of energy and emotion… What makes his sound so immediately interesting, though, is that it is melodic and altogether engaging. There’s a sense of honesty within the way he portrays himself in his songs that makes his words seem both relatable and authentic.” - Alec Cunningham
"When folks think of pop music these days, they likely picture in their minds what is popular at the moment. And that picture would likely include mixtures of EDM, rock and rap into a contemporary sounding stew. However, when Hutchison’s music is described as pop, this description is meant to signal classic pop. So this truer picture would be something along the lines of the Beatles and melodic 60s music. It’s the kinds of sounds anglophiles particularly dig.” - Dan MacIntosh
