Hume are from Washington DC and play a sort of eccentric pop/rock at times on the border of math and avant rock. 
I'm not sure where to put them on PA, but perhaps X-Over would be a good starting point for examination.

Here's what is said on them in their label's site:

"Hume, based in Washington, DC, brings an energy to experimental pop that's been missing for a long time. Penumbra, the band's new EP is deceptively challenging, but at its core is thrilling and engaging. Recorded with Hays Holladay (of Bluebrain) early in 2010, the band emerged a tight unit full of tamed energy and will embark on a tour this summer. The record will be released on Sockets Records on limited edition 12" vinyl in August 2010. It will also be widely available in digital format in September 2010."

Oh, I thought for a second that this thread will be dedicated to the obscure english viol player of the XVIIth century, Tobias Hume...

I'm listening to the last release on BandCamp and it's excellent. Much more progressive than the regular math-pop, IMO progressive enough to be evaluated for Math Rock first. I'll notify the team.

Would that make them X Hume?
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
