Artist History In July 2002 the 'new' 8th fret were officialy formed. After over a year as 'a shitty blink 182 cover band' the original members Tom, John and Paul recruited three more members to help create the massive sound the original visionarys had in mind. The 'newbies' were George and Olly (two old friends of the band) and Alex, singer of local pub band Blue September. It was late one night when the fret stumbled into this local hero, and after a drunken acceptance Alex's fate was sealed. Over the best summer of their lives, the fret worked hard on original material. The result was 'somewhere | between', a fresh and promising start from a band already making a name for themselves on the local scene with their blinding live show. Since then 8th Fret have made stunning appearances in many locations, the best of which in Salisbury Art Centre, where the crowed was blown over and stomped on with the introduction of newer, heavier, stronger, energetic, inspiring material... which will be released very soon... A low point in the bands career was the removal of Olly from the band. Most of the band felt that Olly didn't have the same level of talent and dedication as the others, yet despite the lack of a second guitar the band's sound is more mighty and beautifuly strong than ever. So what next? The release of a new EP to a new legion of fans is imminent, and with offers of management already the future is looking bright. Very, very bright.

Press Reviews "...Next up, making their first apprearence at the Salisbury Art Centre, were 8th Fret, who gave an impressive showing. Obviously influenced by the likes of the LostProphets , the combine plenty of effects, crashing cymbals, and a decent vocal to create a sound which is a little different to most of the young bands coming through. It was also a refreshing change for a Salisbury rock band to have a keyboard as an integral part of their make-up." Salisbury Journal
