My New Musical Fix: George Hrab

I just got back from the U.S. opening Ceremony for the International Year of Astronomy. Musician, skeptic and blogger George Hrab performed and it was great! I had heard of him before, but never really listened to his music or podcast. Well, color me converted. A man with a guitar and smart, funny lyrics about science, skepticism, and telling you who he is and what he believes (or doesn’t believe). Kind of reminds me of a more scientific version of Pat McCurdy. He also wrote and sings the theme song for the 365 Days of Astronomy Podcast.

So enjoy George Hrab’s “The Assumption”.

    And he is one of the few openly atheist singer/songwriters. It's not every song (we do have lives outside of not believing in God you know). I met him yesterday and got to chat for a few minutes (met him taking a whiz...I seem to be doing that with famous people recently). Very open and personable guy.
