This condition is known as "[[venous hum]]", from which the group's name is derived.<ref name=beard>{{cite web|url=https://wordcurator.wordpress.com/tag/venous-hum/|first=Chuck|last=Beard|date=17 November 2009|title=The Mechanics & Mathematics of Venus Hum|website=Nashville's heART|accessdate=16 July 2024}}</ref>
Their first full-length album, titled ''[[Venus Hum (album)|Venus Hum]]'', was released in 2001. ''[[Big Beautiful Sky (Venus Hum)|Big Beautiful Sky]]'' was released two years later.<ref name=times2003/> Also in 2003, Venus Hum toured with and opened for [[Blue Man Group]], with Strean providing vocals on "[[I Feel Love]]".
After their collaboration with [[J. J. Abrams]] (''[[Alias (TV series)|Alias]]'', ''[[Lost (2004 TV series)|Lost]]'', ''[[Mission: Impossible III]]''), and their subsequent creation of the EP ''Songs for Superheroes'', it was uncertain whether Venus Hum would release any new material. Strean had developed painful [[vocal fold nodules]] and needed a speech pathologist to relearn her singing ability. Kip diversified, furthering his interest in filmmaking, becoming a director of [[music videos]], [[electronic press kit]]s and special features. Tony traveled, living in [[Los Angeles]] and [[Cincinnati]] and releasing an experimental solo album under the moniker "Satellite City".
After a two-year hiatus,<ref name=beard/> the group reorganized and released a new album, ''[[The Colors in the Wheel]]'' on July 25, 2006, under the Mono-Fi Records label, which they described as "unconventional, three-dimensional and completely five-sensual" featuring an edgier sound than their previous work.
In the second half of 2008, Venus Hum returned to the studio to work on material for a new album, culminating in the October 6th, 2009 release of ''Mechanics & Mathematics''. ''Best Remodeled'', a [[remix album]], was released on November 18, 2016. From July through December 2020, the band released a series of singles which were later included on the album ''Kindness Rages On'', released on August 23, 2021.
