Alec leads a four-piece genre-hopping ensemble (Death by Comet), which consists of James Clark (bass guitar + vocals), Jacob Aviner (lead electric guitar + vocals), PJ Holaday (drums).

“Hutson’s vocal commands a power like few other male singers I have come across…His range and tone is gorgeous and forceful in the same breath. There is an unbridled energy in how he pushes the entire arrangement forward with his vocal…its staggering.”

Hutson draws influences from a range of genres, including soul, funk and folk for a groovy indie sound that’s both catchy and contemplative.

My husband and I hired Alec for our intimate backyard wedding at a restaurant in Brooklyn. Alec was so lovely and easy to work with from start to finish. He learned a couple songs for us, which were beautiful to hear in person. I would absolutely recommend working with Alec, and I hope to hire him again in the future!
