Section Eight was formed in 1983 when five friends left their individual bands and formed a common one.
The original setting lasted approximately for two months and after that the singer Peter Kronberg joined. He was a friend to the other members since a long time also.
Rehersals was going on frequently and in 1984 the first demo was recorded. It was made in a studio in Ransta.
In 1985 our first single was recorded in Västerås. The B-side on the single is the song Breaking Away who became Section Eight's most known and asked for.Another demo was made in Heavy Loads studio in Stockholm with Ragne as a producer.In 1987 and 1988 Section Eight participated in Rock-SM and went to semi finals both years.
Peter was elected as the Best Singer.In 1988 the last single (Bad Girl/Loosing you) was recorded at Studio Kuling in Örebro.In the fall of 1989 a big tour with the company Rock DeLight AB was planned but due to personal reasons the band was terminated instead.In the beginning of the 90-ties most former members got together and formed a cover band called Nothing Right Now (www.nothingrightnow.com).All songs from Section Eights singles can be heard on this site.Discography:
