John Wallace Hutchinson was a 19th-century American singer and composer. He came from a musical family and became known as a member of the Hutchinson Family Singers, a family vocal group that gained great popularity in the United States beginning in the 1840s.

The group consisted of John, his brothers Judson and Asa, and his sister Abby, among others. They sang polyphonic songs and performed at concerts and political events.

The Hutchinsons were socially active and supported the abolition of slavery, the temperance movement, and women’s rights. In 1845–1846, they undertook a concert tour of Great Britain, at times accompanied by the well-known abolitionist Frederick Douglass.

Hutchinson wrote and published songs and later authored a book on his family history. He died in 1908 at the age of 87.
