About Me

I've spent the last 3 years working on a movie about my mission to inspire people to follow their dreams and change the world...a behind the scenes documentary about my music career and our evolutionary goals as a species on the planet of free choice entitled "Ascension"...as Ken Stringfellow (who appears in the film producing and performing on a song for me) recently summed up in his blog: "Alaska-based artist Crystal Hutchens recently released a DVD about the making of her album, and her motivations and inspirations for the spiritual journey implied in her creative act." Jon Auer (Posies) and Brock Lindow (36 Crazyfists) also appear in the movie from studio sessions on my album "Somewhere Under the Rainbow" due out this spring.Learn more about me, the film and watch clips on the "Ascension" site, first on my friend list.

Influences:

Sounds Like: "silky voiced...local acoustic goddess...she's got a little rock star in her" Josh Niva, Anchorage Daily News~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Haunting voice...great slack-chic emo" Brian MacMillian, Anchorage Press~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Crystal's lyrics blend seamlessly in and out of the music, with every tongue click and spit adding to the sensuality of her vocals." Allen Murray, Anchorage Press~~~~~~~~~~~~ "her lilting voice sounds remarkably Celtic and is reminscent of that of Dolores O' Riordon of the Cranberries." BMac, Anchorage Daily News~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "she sounds a little like Margo Timmons of the Cowboy Junkies and Hope Sandoval of Mazzy Star, only better." Jay Stange, Anchorage Daily News~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "folk/pop ballads of dreamscapes...Combining fluid melodies with an edgy, seductive voice, her songs moved with a kind of push-pull siren-song tension" Jonah Hoyle, Anchorage Press~~~~~~~~~~~
