WLOY Coffeehouse: Matt Hutchison 11/6

Tuesday, November 4th, 2014 by WLOY Staff

As a child, Matt Hutchison fell in love with The Beatles. He even spent a few years in England when he was younger. Matt’s love went as far as thinking he was Paul McCartney! (He used to sign his school papers as Paul McCartney.) Now, he’s bloomed into a wonderful artist that will be at the WLOY Coffeehouse THIS THURSDAY! If you want a little taste of what his music is like, Matt just released four free streaming tracks from his upcoming album, “Three Minute Man”, that will be released November 30.

Where: Reading Room

When: Thursday from 9:00-11:00pm

Why: Because who doesn’t love someone who loves The Beatles?
