Hall & Oates having listened to Metallica for three days solid before recruiting The Manics to create a hybrid of Power Pop unknown to Man until this point in time. Oh, so you don't believe us? Well click on this link and see for yourselves!
Magic Eight Ball's music is conjured from the musical sorcery of Baz Francis, Robbie J. Holland and Michael Gates. The band's songs vary greatly in lyrical and musical theme, each drawing from a deep pool of influence borrowing from rock n' roll, soul, pop and satire, providing them each with a common theme of euphoric sound and cathartic howling. As the band busily promote their EP, single and DVD, they shall no doubt be careering through a town near you very soon, and consider youselves warned as their live performances are always an excuse to put on a show that only leaves the good kind of taste in your mouth.

thank you very much, my music should be up on itunes sometime in the coming months as well. im pretty excited, though it is very hard to get people to notice your music when you can't play gigs. At a loss on how to get the word out.
