RECENT ACTIVITIES....
8 Mile Creek just finished a 4 song demo....The first four songs on our myspace page were done at WISHBONE STUDIOS in Muscle Shoals, AL. Special thanks to Mcguire Productions, Daniel Beard (studio engineer) Roger Allan Clark (drums) and Larry Byrom (Guitar, and Keyboards) who were sooooo easy to work with. We had a blast and hoped that they did too. Very professional... it was an honor to get to work with them .... thanks for a great job!
Unfortunately I have spelled Larry Byrom's name wrong through this whole sequence so please forgive me....It takes a long time to upload and retag everything...

Behind The Scenes..... Special Thanks to David Kelley, Robert Jackson, Gary Bradshaw, Charles Baker, Brian Cain, Pat White (FLIPPER), Brian Hays, Larry Smith, Rod Wallace, Kris Cochran, and Ed Canada(Ruffun)!
