In 2008, Hutchinson recorded and released his hit album Sounds Like This on his own. The album debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Heatseekers chart.

Support for Eric Hutchinson’s Tell The World Tour will be Saints of Valory, a band based out of Austin, TX. They released their 4-song EP Possibilities in July of last year.

The band relocated to Austin in 2010 and released The Bright Lights later that year. They released another EP, Kids, in 2012. That year they were ranked as one of Billboard’s Top Unsigned Artists.
