Leroy Hutson

Leroy Hutson (* 4. Juni 1945 in Newark, New Jersey) ist ein amerikanischer Soulsänger, Komponist, Musikproduzent und Songschreiber.

Leben

Leroy Hutson wuchs in New Jersey auf. Hier startete er erste erfolglose Versuche lokale Vocal-Bands zu gründen. Seit 1967 war er gemeinsam mit Donny Hathaway Mitglied der Mayfield-Singers, die eine Single für Curtis Mayfield veröffentlichten. 1970 studierte er an der Howard Universität, Washington (D.C.), wo er das Zimmer mit Donny Hathaway teilte und Lehrveranstaltungen mit Roberta Flack besuchte.

Nach Donny Hathaways Hit The Ghetto, an dem er mitgewirkt hatte, wurde er von 1970-1973 Nachfolger von Curtis Mayfield in der Gruppe The Impressions. Seit 1973 brachte er mehrere Solo-Alben heraus, deren bekannteste Love Oh Love (1973) und The Man! (1974) sind.

Seit 1992 hat sich Leroy Hutson aus dem Musikgeschäft zurückgezogen.
