HYDROGYN... So what's in a name? The highly flammable element, (hydrogEn), is the lightest of all gases and the most abundant element in the universe. While the two names are VERY similar, only one description fits the band HYDROGYN. While HYDROGYN is VERY hot and flammable, there is nothing “light” about this foursome. And as far as abundance is concerned, and unlike the “element,” this band IS one of a kind.

If you get the opportunity to catch HYDROGYN live, do yourself a favor... GO! But, you say you want to see HEAVY guitars with a ton of balls and attitude... GO! So, you demand a rhythm section that pounds you in to oblivion... GO! Oh, so you want a combination of modern sound with old school... GO!

Oh yeah, the vocals... Sorry Julie, I almost forgot about you (yeah, right). Let's put Julie's physical appearance to the side for a moment (but, not for too long). It is so VERY unlikely that you should ever find a combination of attributes like Julie has: vocals that never stray from anything but amazing… seriously, amazing and able to handle absolutely any vocal style that has ever been thrown her way. Julie has finally found a home. This IS the kind of music she was meant to sing. And, like all of the best musicians and vocalists, HYDROGYN live shows are not to be missed.

HYDROGYN is a rare combination of virtuoso guitar work thanks to one Jeff Westlake, heart pounding drums and bass thanks to Chris Sammons & Josh Kitchen respectfully, and searing but smooth vocals along with mesmerizing and quite honestly stunning beauty from front lady “Julie.” In case I did not make myself clear about seeing AND hearing HYDROGYN live… GO!!!

Jeff Watson, May 2008

This CD was written over a period of about a full year and a total of 35 songs written before the final selection was made as you have it here. Every song on this work has specific meaning to one or all of the band members in some way or another. While this is not a concept piece by any means it is however very thematical in its nature. Much like Bombshell, this recording has an underlying theme that has been inspired by nothing more than life itself.

As with most songs, the lyricist has one idea in mind when writing the lyrics. From that point the listener will take it and interpret it to their own meaning to fit into their life as it relates to them personally. This CD is no different. Even though Julie had certain things in mind that inspired each and every song, the listener may on many occasions mold it into something completely different to fit their life. This is a great collection of songs and a new place for HYDROGYN that we like very much. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we did creating it.

Julie, Jeff, Josh, Chris and Davo
