Join us for an evening of live music on the waterfront as Music on Mirror Bay returns on Saturday, August 29, 2026, featuring the Christina Hutt Duo. The performance will take place from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM at the Mirror Bay Town Dock.
Christina can fill a room with her rich, resonant, out-of-this era voice and move
you with her honest, charismatic delivery. Once described as a full-bodied glass of red
wine, her sound is reminiscent of the soul-stirring vocals you would have heard flowing from
a transistor radio in the late 50’s. You will understand why Hutt has been dubbed “the
voice” in her hometown of Muskoka, Ontario. She welcomes you into the secrets of her
heart with fierce passion and endearing spirit. Christina’s ease in a diversity of genres
brings a captivating quality to her performances. The lyrics in her song “Cracks & Crevices”
take you deep into the chilling darkness of emotional anguish while her tune “Fifteen Shades” makes you feel like you just might just be at a Patsy Cline Tribute Show. Her band features legendary drummer Gary Craig and lead guitar player Graham Powell, both known for their work with Jann Arden, Juno Award-winning blues artist Paul Reddick, and the exceptionally talented Tricia Foster. Together, they create a musical experience that is both electric and deeply heartfelt. Their undeniable connection—rooted in mutual respect and a shared love for music—radiates from the stage, drawing audiences into their world. This energy is reflected in the crowd, where every note and lyric becomes a shared experience of passion, nostalgia, and pure joy. Whether performing her original music, eclectic covers, or Christina’s acclaimed Spirit of Patsy Cline tribute show, the band’s synergy makes every performance an unforgettable journey.
Hutt’s original song “I Should Have Changed” was placed in the top 10 female songs of 2022 in BLUES AND ROOTS RADIO INTERNATIONAL SONG CONTEST. This small town country girl has written and recorded music with Canadian Music Hall Of Fame inductee, multi-instrumentalist, producer, Jeff Bird of the legendary Cowboy Junkies as well as singer/songwriter producer, Sue Smith.
Christina resides in Kearney, Ontario not far from her hometown, Sprucedale. She was drawn to music at the age of five when her parents bought her a wireless microphone and a Tina Turner album. She continues to be influenced by many artists, recognizing the soul in Etta James, Patsy Cline’s art of delivering a song, the poetry of Leonard Cohen, the warmth of Mary Chapin Carpenter, and the camaraderie of The Cowboy Junkies, to mention a few.
In the past several years Christina has performed on the VIA RAIL coast to coast train across Canada; released an EP; recorded backup vocals for Kerrville Folk Award winner Jon Brooks; and performed with Juno Award winner Blues artist Paul Reddick. Hutt has also worked with and been mentored by Juno award winner Blues singer, Rita Chiarelli, and one of Canada’s finest folk artists, Katherine Wheatley. Christina has opened for Canadian Country singers, Tim Hicks and Tyler Joe Miller as well as Juno Award winner Blues artist Paul James and Canadian Folk Singer Craig Cardiff.
Bring a lawn chair, relax by the water, and enjoy a wonderful summer evening of music in Kearney!
