Tuesday 07-15-2008 5:18pm CT

Emerging Artist Eric Hutchinson (around the station we refer to him as E-Hutch!) joined Oake on the beautiful deck at Maynards for a special on-site Studio C performance. It was a packed deck and for good reason; the weather was phenomenal and E-Hutch was providing the soundtrack for the night.

Below you'll find video not only of the 2 Eric Hutchinson Studio C performances but also video of 2 songs that we didn't even broadcast!
