Take a trip to Paradise Pop 10 with beloved singer-songwriter and producer, Christian Lee Hutson.

Following his 2022 release Quitters - produced by longtime collaborators Phoebe Bridgers and Conor Oberst - he enlisted the help of Bridgers once again to produce.

The album title is based on a real life small town where Hutson spent a portion of his childhood. He takes listeners on a journey of autobiographical fiction with his signature wit and sharp storytelling. There are retable themes of love and the limbo of life in his narration across an elevated indie rock sound.

The album also features guest vocals from Bridgers, Katy Kirby, and Maya Hawke - another frequent collaborator whose universally lauded new album credits Hutson as producer and co-writer.

Praise for Christian Lee Hutson:

"Few lyricists can paint such clear portraits in such a small space; even fewer can set them so naturally to such long-breathed melodies." - Pitchfork

"These are small films in song, delicate and devastating, lingering long." - The Guardian

"...he wraps jagged, elliptical stories in delicious haunted melodies and intriguing, colourful, self-deprecating lyrics… these songs, even those with rough edges, are infused with a real sense of humanity, their black humour cocking a snook at an indifferent world." - The Irish Times
