TACOMACENTRIC at MARINE PARK STAGE
In the national spotlight, VIII DAYS CLEAN has earned the title "America's Recovery Band" and has been band of the month on Recovery 101 Radio and the 12 step Gazette. VIII DAYS CLEAN's video “Open up” has gained them a Prism award nomination for 2010. Pinning down the essence of VIII Days Clean is a bit of a conundrum. For the past four-years the Tacoma-based hard rock band skews heavy towards those in active drug and alcohol recovery. With all four members of the band in recovery from heroin, methamphetamine or alcohol, they are a natural fit for other addicts and alcoholics in recovery. But the guys in VIII Days Clean are not interested in saving souls, being preachers or personal guides to the path of enlightenment. They have no interest in being role models. They’re happy to share their stories through their lyrics, but at the core the band is just four guys that found their way back to rock and roll after a lifetime of addiction and abuse. And now they just want to rock. If you’re interested in coming along for the ride, that’s just fine with them.
Relentless marketing, recording and epic live performances have established VIII DAYS CLEAN as one of the most sought after bands in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Featured local industry showcases and events include Evening Magazine’s Best of Western Washington Bands Contest (4th place out of 460 bands). Performed at The Fallen Officer Benefit with KZOK 102.5 FM at EMP (Experience Music Project). They were inducted into the coveted KISW 99.9 FM Hall of Fame.
