Caleb Hutchison, who goes by the stage name of ILY Truly, was born and raised in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and is an up-and-coming independent artist looking to make his mark on the music industry. He used to listen to his favorite artists as a kid and wished to make music like them someday, but he could never put the money together to make it happen. Determined to change that, he was able to save up and purchase his first set of equipment after a few years of hard work.
After getting his equipment and working on his sound as an artist, ILY Truly knew he was going to have to make moves and reach out to other artists in order to grow. As a result, he met his band, formally known as “Death Rose,” who all came together as independent artists to create something unique. The group would come to accomplish great things, but ILY Truly decided it was time for him to work on his own thing on the side.
“After doing shows after shows around the city, I started to do more around Wisconsin and eventually in other states, traveling to California for my first time or my first shows in Chicago winning performance competitions and eventually opening up a sold-out show with Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, headlining shows with Serena Isioma, being on the very first YSN Flow tour and even performing in Denver with Lil Say Osama,” says Truly.
Currently blessed and motivated beyond belief, ILY Truly is excited to see where the next chapter of his life takes him. He plans to go at the music industry full-force and leave it all on the line. With the second half of 2021 getting underway, look for ILY Truly’s name to start popping up a lot more. He has a lot in store and can’t wait to bring his dreams to fruition.
