Gene grew up in a small town in the Midwest and started playing at eleven years old. He was in his first professional band by the age of 19 was recruited by four professional musicians in his home town to be the front man in their new band. By 1980 he went out as a solo artist and released his first album "Out of the Clouds" with the help of two dedicated believer's financing and two musicians from his first band to perform

After starting one band and joining another in 1983, he decided to start travelling. He raised a small amount of money, packed up what musical equipment he had in a 1964 Chevy Bel-Air and took off to Los Angeles. After bouncing around a while he ended up in New Mexico where he found a home and a large following of fans that still love his music and are always waiting for more.

After opening for several famous artists including Jethro Tull and many others, he moved to Seattle in hopes to make a change in his life. After playing over 3000 shows from 1977-2000, he decided not to pursue any more live music. However, these days his mind is more open to playing out if the right circumstances were to arise.

He operates his own small studio and records and produces his music and in 2011 released his fourth album "Singularity" . It is his hope to be an Internet presence for people who want to hear music that explores years of living from his heart and possessing the will to survive the journey. He plays and sings all of his own tracks with the notable exception of recruiting his daughter to sing beautiful harmonies on many of his studio tracks.

In 2011, he decided to accept an invitation to come back to Southern Illinois to play their annual "Wolfstock Festival". Although he had not played a live show since the year 2000, the show was extremely well received and Hood realized how much he had missed entertaining. Since coming back to Seattle he is still trying to find the right venue or perhaps other "like-minded" musicians to work with to put something special together just one more time.
