About Me

To fans of country, rock and pop, EIGHTY1SOUTH is rapidly becoming a well known name in the Baltimore area. Formed in 2001, Caity Lynn and Jen recorded their first debut album under the name Stardust at Pure Sound Studio. Both girls headed of to college in Tennessee, where Jen studied blue grass and Caitlin was involved in one of the nation's top recording industries. The move caused a temporary lapse in progress, despite their ability to record a second album in the summer of 2003, but as the girls reunited they came back to Baltimore and renamed the duo "EIGHTY1SOUTH." Since then, eighty1south has recorded yet another album, available now! They have also played in some of the Baltimore-Washington Metro area's most popular venues. EIGHTY1SOUTH was highlighted as the Band of the Week in the Baltimore City Paper this fall. Their unique electrified hillybilly sound is undeniable. Spunky, spirited and simply southern... get out and catch these girls from Maryland with a Tennessee driven name. MyGen Profile Generator
