Bio

An exciting new Canadian band, hailing from Sarnia, Ontario. These 5 players will rock the house with original music that show their love of true musicianship and the foundations of Rock 'n Roll. With their musical inspirations being so diverse as Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Black Crowes, Eric Johnson, Lyle Lovett, and EmmyLou Harris, you can expect great Rock that is high energy, unique, and keeps you singing the songs long after they leave the stage. They introduced themselves Summer 2004 with impressive performances opening for Trooper and Kim Mitchell at ‘The Great Canadian Fly-In Music Festival’, and for the Tragically Hip at ‘Bayfest’. With their first single, titled 'Free', hitting radio, and their debut CD soon to be released, you can look forward to great things from death of 8.

He signed to Atlantic Records and Warner Music Canada, released two internationally distributed CD's, achieved Double Platinum status in record sales.
