Sean Hutchinson is a native Seattleite and a hell of a nice guy. He began banging on pots and pans as soon as he could hold them and naturally gravitated to the drums. Sean plays jazz, rock, electronic music, a mean train beat, and whatever else he can get himself into, including Ableton Live, midi organ pedals, tabla, fame drums, and other yummy percussion morsels. He plans to increase smiling by 200% by the year 2010...
OH Yeah...and

The 31th edition of Jazz Hoeilaart: Join the Contest!
Hi! Thanks for the Friendship!
If you are an ambitious jazzgroup with young musicians you can inscribe for the Jazz Hoeilaart Contest 2009 until the 15th of may. The festival, which is organised by Muziekmozaïek in collaboration with vzw De Rand, will take place from the 24th until the 26th of September and is intended for young international Jazz talent.
The 30-years old festival has its reputation for bringing international talent into the spotlights. Many known artists, such as Rosario Guiliani, Michiel Borstlap, Magnus Lindgren, Alexi Tuomarila and Robin Verheyen were on stage at this international contest.
The 31st edition of the contest will open on Thursday the 24th of September 2009. Until the 26th of September six finalists will perform in a contest-formula. Each evening will close with performances of Jack Van Poll/ Jef Neve/ Bart Van Caeneghem/ Ewout Pierreux (24/09), Hijaz (25/09), en Cintia Rodriguez (26/09). Ambitious young musicians can inscribe for the contest-section until the 15th of May 2009.
Listen to all the songs online including "Cataclysmic OneMillion" featuring a rare skit by the late, great BHIVE.
You all have been supporting our homemade music for three albums now and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Mario produced all the tracks with Raven and Joey stepping in here and there. The cover art also features work by BHIVE (thanks Vince and Annette) -- clearly his impact on his friends is as powerful as ever.
Love and thanks go to our collaborators: Uzi, Muriel Montgomery, Davie-Blue and Raven.
