"Louisiana phenoms Super Water Sympathy are releasing their highly
anticipated second full-length album, Hydrogen Child, which is the next
chapter in the development of their self-made genre Water Pop…a
synthesis of classic symphonic ambience with modern rock’n’roll anthems.
These new songs confirm the undeniable talents of this five-piece band
who have been packing Southeast venues for the past few years. Super Water
Sympathy’s debut album, Vesper Belle , was released in 2011 and two
tours of the United States followed. The band also lent their writing
& production skills to B.O.B’s Strange Clouds with the track
“Chandelier” and Vesper Belle ‘s songs were heavily featured on the MTV
series “Caged”. In the summer of 2012, before heading out
to perform on the highly-coveted Vans’ Warped Tour, the band flew to
London to record with producer Cam Blackwood (Florence + The Machine,
Coldplay, Morrissey), and emerged with the 12 new songs which make up
Hydrogen Child."
Check out the band at it's official Website, Facebook, Twitter, iTunes and YouTube. The band's second full-length, "Hydrogen Child", dropped this week. My thanks to guitarist Clyde Hargrove for taking a few minutes to participate in this edition of First/Last.

Any thoughts,
experiences about Pittsburgh?
Pittsburgh is a vital landmark in America that breathes and beats with blood
and dirt and rock and water. Without this great city and its people, America
would merely be a restaurant without a foundation.
Thanks, Clyde. Been digging the album for awhile now. How about an upcoming Pittsburgh date soon?
