Set to play at X&Y on the 12th of May in Brisbane, 8th Edge takes a moment before the big day to clue us in. Among the news are new songs and a soon to be released video, which should get you psyched to check them out live. Other than that, this band is just happy to rock out with full-on professional stage and sound, ready to take full advantage of the Emergenza set up. Don’t miss out!

YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN TOGETHER FOR QUITE SOME TIME. DO YOU THINK THAT WILL HELP TO GIVE YOU AN EDGE OVER OTHER BANDS? IF NOT, WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL SET YOU APART?
Not Really. There are a heap of good bands out there. No matter the time they've been together. We cover many different styles in the rock genre. Therefore we believe we can appeal to everyone in the audience with our range.

CAN YOU TELL US MORE ABOUT YOUR MUSICAL INFLUENCES?
It's so different between all of us that we pull inspiration from many different genres hence our wide variety within our own music.

YOU’VE ALREADY GOT QUITE A LOT OF MATERIAL ONLINE FOR YOUR FANS TO HEAR. DO YOU HAVE ANY TRICKS UP YOUR SLEEVE FOR YOUR LIVE SHOW?
We have a new song that we're going to unleash. 

WHAT SHOULD WE EXPECT FROM 8TH EDGE IN THE FUTURE? WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS FOR THE PROJECT?
More songs and more shows. Also just finished recording our first music video. Right now it's in post-production.

WHAT MADE YOU GUYS CHOOSE EMERGENZA?
The HIFI was our initial lure. But the professional sound and stage was what we were looking forward to.

WHAT DO YOU LOOK FORWARD TO THE MOST ABOUT THE FESTIVAL EXPERIENCE?
We like to take any avenue we can to get our music heard by a wider audience.
