Finally Eric’s first music video has resurfaced. CM5268 posted it on Youtube. The 2002 video was Eric’s final film project during his senior year at Emerson. It was directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson, and was shot in the streets of Boston.
It was entered into the EVVY’s, and was show at Third Annual Emerson College Festival of Film and Video. “I hope that when other students see good work they look at it as a challenge to learn and take the opportunities at Emerson,” said senior Todd Strauss-Schulson, winner of the 2002 EVVY for Best Single Camera Director for Subtitles, in his acceptance speech. “People should recognize good work and promote it within the film community.”
On December 15th, Warner Bros Records will release Sounds Like This Live 2, an EP featuring stripped-down versions of five songs from Sounds Like This. Sounds Like This Live 2 follows Hutchinson’s Sounds Like This Live EP, which features live versions of five different songs and was released in April of 2009.
“I wanted to continue the approach I had on the first EP, getting the songs back to their purest form – the way they were when I wrote them,” Eric explains. “We had a day off in Minneapolis so I went into a studio and played through the songs in one take.”
The track listing;
1. Ok, It’s Alright With Me
2. Outside Villanova
3. Food Chain
4. You Don’t Have to Believe Me
5. It Hasn’t Been Long Enough
