Bethlehem, Pa — A Pennsylvania musician is making the periodic table of elements fun!<\/p>\n
George Hrab and his band, The George HraBand, sing about all 118 elements in the periodic table in his show, “Occasional Songs For The Periodic Table.”<\/p>\n
As they go through the table of elements, there are various musical styles, from reggae to heavy metal.<\/p>\n
“So heavy metal fans and reggae fans will then appreciate and learn about protactinium or learn about einsteinium,” explains Hrab.<\/p>\n
“It’s sort of a fun opportunity to teach people a little bit of something.”<\/p>\n
The project started as a way to get Hrab out of a writers block and he never expected it to turn into something more.<\/p>\n
“And before I knew it, I had like 50 done and then 60 and an 80 and then 100,” says Hrab. “And then I finished them all off and hoped that someday I’d be able to play them live with a band.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bethlehem, Pa — A Pennsylvania musician is making the periodic table of elements fun!
