Biography
8 KOunt is a hard-driving modern rock band that has scored international attention in Metal Edge, Hit Parader and the Concrete Corner disc. The band has recently released their debut CD, Cornered, and is following up with a KO live show in their quest for complete world domination!

If you think about the great rock bands of the past: Zeppelin, U2, NIN: all very different bands with one commonality a passion for what they do and the ability to make you believe in whatever it is they're saying. Dayton, OHs 8 Kount is no different. They want you to believe in them, their music, and their ability to deliver the goods every time they take the stage. If their debut CD, Cornered, is any indication, sign me up. The Russ-T Cobb (Avril Lavigne, Butch Walker, Sevendust, Bowling For Soup) produced disc delivers solid songwriting and an ample supply of both rock and pop sensibilities. Even a casual listen to songs like Insanity Defense and Fire In The Hole and you get the sense that this band is going places: to rock radio, to music television, and if youre lucky, to a venue in your zip code.

The band has already shared the stage with the likes of Shinedown, Tantric and Madina Lake; proving their live bona fides in front of screaming audiences. 8 KOunts lineup includes Todd Charles on drums, Nick Tirey on guitar, Robby D'Lohr on bass and is fronted by Sugar James Sayer.
