   About The HUE
The Hue, an instrumental progressive rock quartet, strives to forge a wholly unique brand of electrified music out of a diverse palate of influences that run the gamut from jazz to metal, classical and post-rock.

As their blistering sound continues to evolve, the band constantly finds new ways to create action-packed songs that tell a story, even without lyrics. From tight progressive rock tunes and wild dance-till-you-drop numbers to expressive and melodious jazz pieces, a fiery dose of dueling guitars mix with the on-point rhythm section attack to reach explosive peaks.

Emerging out of a weekly stint at Chicago’s legendary Wise Fools Pub in January 2007, The Hue has played alongside some of the nation’s best acts including The Wood Brothers, Karl Denson, Garaj Mahal, New Monsoon, The Motet, The Breakfast, and members of Umphrey’s McGee. For the past two years they’ve brought their aggressive progressive fusion to venues across the Midwest, making stops at the 2008 Summercamp and 10,000 Lakes Festivals along the way.

To follow up their debut EP, Unscene, The Hue will release their first full-length album, Beyond Words, later this year. The album, which features keyboard virtuoso Eric Levy (Garaj Mahal) on one track, is comprised mostly of brand-new material, capturing the intensity of the band’s live shows while showcasing the strength of the compositions themselves.
