Eight String Band is an experiment in sound, melody, and rhythm that has been in the back of the band’s three member’s minds for years. The group started playing together in 2002 and then, after only a few short months, split up to work on different projects. It was not until late in 2007 that they decided to get back together to work out the unfinished ideas that had been floating around in their heads since their original sessions.
The music that this trio plays mixes elements of rock, techno, and drum and bass in a simplistic way that separates them from other "fusion" bands playing today or in the past. Also, unlike other "fusion" bands whose music tends to be, sometimes, to technical for some listeners to appreciate, Eight String Band focuses on memorable melodies and grooves, allowing any listener to hear, understand, and appreciate what is being played.
