OK- I know you'veheard it before -but you are my favorite male singer and have been since 1986 when I first heard your music. I just found and listened to your interview on a radio program (on ITunes) and was really happy to hear you are sober and found love with Polly. I have been sober now for 4 years now and can relate to that agony. I also want to say that I can hear it in your voice- it almost sounds like relief to have found a stable, life- affirming love in your relationship with Polly. I don't know jack about her- except I like her already for loving you! The public sees the beauty of you, but she appreciates the fullness of all that your beauty has to give. Namaste, Lena

Dadgumit Grayson, I just checked your calendar and nowhere on it do you cross the Mason-Dixon Line. You told me last year that this year, you would be touring in Dixie, specifically Alabama. Mobile is the Bama hot spot. Pristine beaches, tons of bikinis, great seafood and lots of folks waiting for a world class entertainer to swoon them with cuts from Blind To Reason. Lyle Lovett has been here toooooo many times. We need you. I read other's comments below and I will urge to you to bypass the Midwest, especially Iowa (no disrespect) and come to the Heart Of Dixie. Virgin territory for you Grayson. Thousands of fans waiting on YOU. Bring your bride too.

We were sitting in a resturaunt , on New Years Day, celebrating my daughters birthday . Low and behold on the radio I heard "Talk it Over." I proceeded to completely embarrass my two teenage kids, by singing along , ( rather loudly at that). After I coaxed the kids out from under the table ( they were horrified :), my son informed me that I was such a tool for thinking I knew anything about Rap music. He then informed me that the "Rap"song I thought I knew was by one of his favorite Rap singers. Well that just forced my hand, I had to show him a thing or two. using his smart phone I pulled up a You Tube of Graysons' video for Talk it Over . The kids were amazed. Then my daughter went on Facebook and looked up Grayson, and proudly informed me that she had " facebooked him, and sent a friend request" .Now it was my turn to be horrified! I need not have been horrified. One thing led to another and I found myself sitting in Sothington Conneticut a few weeks later listening to one of the BEST musical performances I have been to . We will be regulars now. The two of you are a joy to listen to . See you soon:)

Grayson, since buying Blind to Reason many years ago, "Talk It Over" is never far away, on a mix CD, my iPod, my computer, you name it. Awesome job. Looking forward to hearing the new stuff. Thanks for all the hard work.

Mr. Hugh,
I am writing you because you are my namesake. My Mom and Dad met at one of your concerts during the "Blind to Reason" tour you did. They didn't know each other at all and went with their own group of friends in Charlotte, NC to the "Palomino Club", a country/western bar, basically. They dated for about a year afterward, got married and I was their first child. They name me Grayson after you, because your concert is what put everything in motion. My Dad sings the blues constantly (in his spare time dropping in with local bands and such) and is always telling people this story and how you and Stevie Ray inspired him. From time to time, we'll be watching a movie and he'll pipe up that "that song has to be a Grayson Hugh, a sure enough in the credits it is. Your music and lyrics always have a distinct flavor and signature sound. I just wanted to reach out to tell you how much you are appreciated. My Dad 'Butch' LeCompte, my Mom Debbie LeCompte and Myself Grayson LeCompte are fans of yours.

Grayson, your music transcends every boundary that has been arbitrarily established to pigeonhole artists. I love your voice, and wish I could see one of your shows, but the phillistines in the central part of Florida wouldn't turn out for something that good.
On a purely selfish note, it breaks my heart tthat I'm a baritone, and cannot sing anything of yours in the key it was written in...

Grayson,
I'm a retired SC State Trooper. My late brother Jody is the one who introduced me to your music back in 1989, he was only 37 when he died. He had a stack of music when he died in 2008 and your " Blind to Reason" was on the top of the stack. I wish you and Jody could have talked. He was a very soulful person.
I use to play your music as I patrolled the highways of SC. My wife and I have 3 children and we almost named the middle child "Grayson", sorry but family politics took precedence.
We are all glad to see ya back.
If your ever down in SC give me a call, stop in for coffee or iced tea. I'm sure you are familiar with Southern Hospitality. Good Luck and I hope to see you back on top, in the charts and on Good Morning America again.

Hi Grayson, I just heard a copy of An American Record. Loved Cold Blue White. It was great to see a bunch of Hartford boys on the tracks. I've played with most of them at one time or another and it is great to hear you are back at it. By the way did you ever record Thumpin in My Heart? I loved that tune way back in the day hearing it live at the 880 in Hartford. I always thought I would hear it on the airwaves.

I had never heard of Grayson Hugh. I was at a funeral for a family friend. She had died very suddenly at age 81. Playing bridge on Monday, and passed away on Wed. The service was somber, everyone still in shock, everyone searching for something to hold onto that represented Joan. In what appeared to be an unplanned moment, a family member and the minister walked up the aisle and spoke to this guy at the end of the pew, and we saw heads nod. Some kind of agreement.
After words of remembrance, and not appearing on the program, this person walked to the front of the church, sat down and played "In the Mood."
Those few moments brought everyone to life,captured in 4.3 minutes the essence of the person we were there to say good-bye to and ever since I am fascinated by the music of Grayson Hugh.
Go listen.

I love your voice, it reminds me of Motown, you have such a soulfulness and I happen to read your bio and it all came together. I look forward to purchasing your music and your new CD that will be released this year. Thank you for being you, and I look forward to listening to all of your beautiful music!

I became famaliar with your work in the late eighties with talk it over and I loved it from the beginning. I lost touch after due to the birth of my daughter but never forgot. I am now back in the groove and still loving all of you work. I used to live in Hartford for a while as a young girl, wish sometimes I could come back I miss the white snow and slush(lol). I here in Georgia now and has been for a long time and guess I will always stay here, I will be searching for your work now. Be well.

I will never forget not only how talented you were then , but how outrageous, like the time you played Hootchie Kootchie Man for my father. I am so happy to catch up with you and your newer music. You rock! I love your new web-site , the graphics are great. You have always been a gifted musician and performer, it's so great that you are still keeping it rolling!! Come to the Island of Kauai some time.

It is just amazing to me that so many years passed without me knowing what happened to you. I just recently discovered your body of work pre blind to reason and post road to freedom. While I love those two albums, your other work clearly outshines them. I am looking forward to seeing you at one of your shows soon and I am eagerly anticipating your new album. Meanwhile, on my MP3 player I will just repeat City Dawn (an absolute masterpiece, perhaps your best), No Such Thing As Those Walls, River Of Love, Some Mighty Tears and On the Water. Please email me when the new album is available!
