AV8 formed in 1998 when bassist Martin Healy approached singer Niamh McDonald with the idea of writing, recording and producing a collection of songs independently. A lot of new bands spend their energy and money making demo's in the hope of impressing a record company but few are ultimately successful. "We decided to do things differently from the start" says Martin. "With computer soft/hardware these days it's possible to make recordings of equal quality to those made in commercial studios, and you don't have to worry about budget and time restrictions". Niamh says "Having our own studio means we can work at our own pace and change stuff around if we want."

After a few months writing, fate and a mutual friend brought our duo together with Morgan Pincot. Morgan arrived in Ireland from his native France armed only with a guitar and a very old Renault car which still gets him to the studio on time (well mostly). The band have now finished a C.D. of which a sample is available from our download page. Take it, it's free! If you like it and would like to hear more send us an email.
