about
'Down In Flames' produced by Sheldon Steiger and James Walsh for Major Who Media in 2006. This is an unbelievably enjoyable record. It’s hard to find an artist that penetrates today’s music with an undeniable timeless quality in voice and authenticity like Wes Hutchinson. His songs are saturated with melody, heart felt lyrics, and music that bridges pop & rock sensibility. Influenced by soul, timeless folk, and unforgettable rock records, Wes issues a sound that is deep rooted and real. Since moving to New York City a two and a half years ago, Wes has enjoyed success as an unsigned artist. Wes was named grand prizewinner of the BMI-sponsored Rock Boat Song Contest, which lead to an opening slot for Shawn Mullins. He also had the opportunity to play a private industry showcase for Billboard Magazine at the prestigious Core Club in Midtown Manhattan, which landed him in Billboard magazine on the ‘Backbeat’ page. “Things we need the most” was the featured song in MTV’s hit series Laguna Beach. Other songs of Wes’ have been featured on TV shows and DVD compilations such as Windfall, Boston Public, Rozwell, Party of Five DVD, The Young and the Restless and the Season 2 Laguna Beach DVD. Wes is thrilled to be one of five recipients this year of the Abe Olman Scholarship for Excellence in Songwriting presented by the Songwriters Hall of Fame and BMI. “It’s the troubadour spirit that gets me through hard times and becomes the storybook that is my life.
