Looking for a new pop sensation now that the "American Idol" finale is here? Keep your ears open for ERIC HUTCHINSON, a radio-friendly tunesmith whose catchy blend of folk, pop and soul can be heard on his full-length debut album, Sounds Like This, out now!
The album's first single, "Rock & Roll," hits radio in June and will be used in 'The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2,' in theaters August 8 and starring "Ugly Betty"'s AMERICA FERRERA.
EW.com recently listed Hutchinson's live act as one of the South by Southwest festival's biggest buzz bands, and the singer-songwriter just kicked off a co-headlining tour with MARIÉ DIGBY. Some of the big-city stops on his itinerary include NYC on May 27, Boston on May 30 and Nashville on June 4. The ambitious, 30-plus date tour wraps on July 19 in Commerce City, CO.
Before signing with Warner Brothers, Hutchinson initially released his debut effort, Sounds Like This, last fall on his own label -- and the album proceeded to smash a number of records, landing at No. 5 on iTunes' Top 10 album chart to become the highest-charting album by an unsigned act in iTunes history. So, catch him now so you can tell your friends you were a fan from the get-go!
