A rock story...
In November of 1982, 8084 performed their first show together with the current line-up: Andre Maquera, Randy Smith, Frank Barnes, and Gary Spaulding, plus the late Charlie Hawthorne. 8084’s self-titled debut album sold well throughout Europe and Scandinavia, and since that time, the Billboard and International award-winning musicians have released five albums, one EP, and multiple singles that received critical acclaim in the US, Canada, Europe, and Scandinavia.
The band has performed in excess of 4500 live shows, both as an opening act and as a headliner, sharing the stage with such acts as Blue Oyster Cult, April Wine, Warrant, Edgar Winter, Rick Derringer, Henry Lee Summer, and many others. For the past 40 years, the band has built a following of die-hard fans throughout North America and Europe.
