about

"From a Transistor Radio" is the full-length follow up to Hutson’s debut EP, "Reland". Building on the straight-forward songwriting and guitar-driven instrumentation of their EP, "From a Transistor Radio" takes a turn with a more production-heavy sound. Recording most of the album in the basements and closets of various members’ houses freed the band from the constraints of paid studio time. This homebrew approach allowed the band to explore, make mistakes, and add the extra layers that make "From a Transistor Radio" such a step forward from their previous efforts.

The majority of the songs on "From a Transistor Radio" started in the head of the band's guitarist/vocalist Bryan Larson, with the other full time members, Andrew Nelson (Drums), and Tony Collver (Bass) polishing off arrangement and production. The band rounds out with a rotating cast of friends and other local musicians that make up these final recordings.

"Portland rock band Hutson makes the kind of music that I'd like to invite over for dinner, by which I mean that it's polite enough to help out with the dishes, but wouldn't ever make boring table conversation—and would likely bring over plenty to drink. Hutson's debut full-length From a Transistor Radio (following up their Reland EP) is home to 12 well-honed tracks that vary from folk-flecked strum ("Black Light Serenade Part 2") to riffy amplifier hum ("Kill Your Scene"). Frontman Bryan Larson leads the trio down familiar but entirely pleasing avenues and discovers interesting twists, like the gradual, krautrock-y buildup on the epic "No One's Home," or the yearningly soaring "Ready to Run," both of which should make Portland playlists for years to come." - NED LANNAMANN (Portland Mercury)
