An authentic "new wave" band from the early 1980s, Hormoans offered cutting edge, original material to Central Pa. at a time when most acts where strictly cover. This approach brought them a respectable measure of success, including several gigs in legendary venues such as CBGB's in New York City.

In December, 1981, the band recorded a few dozen tracks made up of their original compositions along with original "translations" of some standard material. Unfortunately, the band broke up soon thereafter and these recordings remained "lost" for over a quarter century. Finally in 2008, these recordings were remastered to form the album Not One of You, which preserves the Hormoans sound for the future.
