As a professional singer for many years, Will Hutcheson makes his recording debut with the fantastic 2022 “Next to You” single. - which straddles that line between electronica euphoria and radio-friendly pop. Whether belting out a rousing chorus or singing subtly alongside pulsating grooves, Hutcheson’s vocals showcase an impressive range indeed. That’s shown front and center during the course of his “Next to You” release.
Hutcheson wrote “Next to You” originally on his ukulele and went from there. To add the song’s signature electropop flair, Steven Shewbrooks of the band Kyven produced “Next to You” taking it to the next level. “The idea of the song is having that one bad habit you can’t quit” states Hutcheson. That’s certainly a universal theme for the ages and makes for an engaging topic in his debut single.
Although “Next to You” has a sophisticated electrop foundation firmly planted in the sound of now, it is still fun bubblegum pop too at its heart with a cool early 2000s retro/throwback vibe to boot. So it's an entertaining nod to nostalgia yet firmly saluting the exciting music scene of today. It’s a great place to be.
