with The Life and Times
Hum plays The Bomb Factory, a 4,300-capacity large club in Deep Ellum, on Saturday, March 6. Also on the bill: The Life and Times. The show starts at 8 PM. Hum also has 11 other dates on Go See Shows, in Houston, Denver, Philadelphia and New York.
Hum's sonic universe is a solipsistic world that exists on its own terms, a maelstrom of sensations and colors, a thick metallic vortex of fuzztoned guitars with a silent core at the center like the eye of a hurricane - equal parts homegrown and high-tech. Hum serves up a cacophony of overlapping harmonics and dense shards of electric guitars providing a counterpoint to Talbott's tales of innocence corrupted and love lost, the past mourned, the theories of physics and relativity applied to modern-day relationships and contemporary attitudes.

Hum is an American alternative rock and post-hardcore band formed in 1989 in Champaign, Illinois; the band performed a mix between both genres obtaining a characteristic heaviness that would define them for the rest of their career (this sound is also known today as Heavy Alternative).
The Life and Times is a Kansas City, MO indie rock band fronted by former Shiner bandleader Allen Epley.
