CD DetailsSynopsis
Album Description Hutchinson's new album "The Crossing" produced by Crit Harmon (Martin Sexton, Susan Werner) will establish her place at that refreshing intersection of genres. Think David Gray, Beth Orton, Shawn Colvin, Patty Griffin. The twenty-five year old possesses a poet's sensibility and a voice that grabs you. There is nothing "folky" about this production but the acoustic guitar and lyrics remain at its center. (She played her grandmother's 1957 Martin guitar in the studio.) The title track for the album is a song about a bridge in Hutchinson's hometown that was mistakenly built higher than the surrounding road. Hutchinson says, "I was working on getting over some difficult things in my life during those months. There was this small sign "pavement ends" and then you'd hit the bridge and be airborne. The songs on this album grew out of this work of getting beyond." Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsFriend of a friend Jennifer Persinger | Virginia | 07/08/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "I visited Simon's Rock College of Bard in Great Barrington, Mass a few years ago. I was introduced to Meg's first CD by a friend who had previously dated Meg's then boyfriend...confusing I know! Just a little tidbit...anyway..I LOVED IT! I have had the album since '96 and told a lot of people about it. I just randomly decided to look her up and I am glad to see her gaining success. I haven't heard the new ones yet, but if they are anything like the first one I know they will be great!!! Meg's music is poetry at its greatest! It has helped me through a few hard times...I even used "Song to Ophelia" for a project back in high school. Keep it up Meg!!! I hope to get the new albums soon!!!" Everything familiar, everything new... plynck | Nawth of Bawstin | 08/25/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is a wonderful CD, in a similar musical genre as Deb Talan or Antje Duvekot or Lori McKenna. I originally bought the CD for "Leonids", but I found later that virtually every song could became my favorite song depending on the time of day, whether I was driving, whether I was working. It's a bit like a many-faceted jewel, reflecting not only the surroundings but a little of oneself." What a terrific album! Diane M. Darbyshire | 03/09/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "Having the good fortune to see Meg Hutchinson in concert, I was inspired to purchase "The Crossing" and proceeded to listen to it endlessly. I'm certain that Meg will become very well known. She writes such beautiful songs, and has an engaging voice. The gutwrenching song "Sum of This" always inspires me to sing along (to the dismay of others) with deep, heartfelt emotion. And the title song, "The Crossing", is clever and fun, but also wrapt with emotion. Meg is even more engaging in concert. I do recommend giving this CD a listen, and I hope that Amazon will stock her other albums soon!"
