  • Christian Lee Hutson : Quitters

    Christian Lee Hutson : Quitters
    Apr 8 2022
    Don your emotional hairshirt and unpack your emotional baggage alongside Brian and Rich as they dissect the latest release from Christian Lee Hutson, Quitters. The guys ruminate on the musical stylings and songcraft of CLH as well as debate how a different approach to production might add to or diminish the "soul" of his songs. They then try and guess each other's favorite track before exploring pretty much the entire batch. With vibes ranging from "likely to be heard on your next visit to the mall", to eerie and downright haunting, the beautiful arrangements, elegant in their simplicity, wrap CLH's "every man" yet somehow painfully poignant lyrics like a warm blanket. We hope you enjoy this gem of an album as much as we (especially Rich) did. I'm not crying, YOU'RE crying: let's make a lunch out of it.
