I first saw H4H play in a little dark dive bar in Orlando (Wills Pub) 2 summers ago . I loved Wills Pub and the patrons  When they started playing these crazy instruments and singing and jamming I was blown away.  Blues, rock,hard stuff, alternative country  It was all great!!
The harmonica was insane  I couldnt help but lose myself in the music It just makes youwant to move and dance and enjoy the moment    For a 2 piece band they rocked the house The ebb and flow of their music just gets inside you  Nice to feel and hear the music Wish they would come up to Red Bank or Asbury Park NJ by me  Lots of places that would appreciate their style for sure.   Grave and Odette top notch songs by top notch creative musicians  Get ya some of H4H !!

I first saw Hymn for Her play in a friend's living room.  Bands, living rooms - you can't expect too much.  But this band BLEW ME AWAY!  I have never seen so much music come out of two people in my life.  They effortlessly jump between instruments and music genres and you can pick up influences of alternative, punk, bluegrass, classic rock, heavy metal, country - amazing!  Their sound on this album is edgy, fun and has a country/punk feel.  The Cigar box Guitar is SMOKIN!

Ok, let’s say you’re in the mood to listen to something really blah… because you cant handle more… because you want blah… Then do NOT listen to Lucy & Wayne and The Amairican Stream from Hymn for Her…


Every note  will take you someplace else, whether you wanna be on a roller coaster or under an olive tree…

The song “Not” is a great appreciation of Maggi’s great soothing voice for those who love “Flame” . The cover “Thursday” just wants you to give them a hug for knowing and saluting what they were influenced by…. Don’t even get me started on “Odette”… Just buy and listen… You won’t regret ☺

'Lucy & Wayne and THE AMAIRICAN STREAM' is an album full of fantastic musical surprises. The twang at the beginning of Slips, the first track, would lead a listener to believe that they are in for a traditional bluegrass experience. However that is definitely not the case with this album and being wrong never sounded so good! Hymn For Her’s Maggi and Pierce weave elements of punk, blues, rock and folk into a bluegrass base and the result is a sound that’s as modern and unique as it is familiar and classic. From gripping melodies that perfectly blend both voices, to banjo played at a breakneck pace, to the wild distortion of their signature cigar box guitar, to haunting harmonica and rocking riffs, to emotional lyrics that beg you to ask tough questions, to hooks that have you humming along days after a listen this album truly takes you on a journey. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing this duo (yes only 2 players create a sound this big!) a few times and I am impressed at how well this album captures their live sound, especially after learning that it was entirely recorded in their vintage Airstream trailer! If 'Lucy & Wayne and THE AMAIRICAN STREAM' is Hymn For Her’s attempt to take fans on the road with them then myself and everyone I’ve played this album for are asking, when’s the next road trip?
