8/89 are hybrid of synths, guitar riffs and sentimentalism. Hailing from London, Jack (born in '88) and Michael (born in '89), began carving out a space between synth-pop and psychedelic rock, creating a sonic landscape with no boundaries. The duo met when they both were trying to start again creatively - Jack, after leaving Sissy and the Blisters, and Michael, after leaving his acting career behind. Once Jack played some of his music to Michael in a car, they grew from there and quickly realized that they are like Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire, yin and yang. While their unique sound is redolent of bands like MGMT, Vampire Weekend, Tame Impala, The Cure, and The Temper Trap, 88/89 also pull influence from artists such as Lou Reed, My Bloody Valentine, Simply Red, and Primal Scream.

Shayanne is a London-born mixed-genre singer and songwriter. From the young age of 6, she found comfort in writing about the world around her as a way to have control in a space that offered none. She has always found solace in the escape into new worlds, from film, t.v and books. Since then, Shayanne has grown to become a songwriter that uses the stimulus around her to help inform the songs she writes.

Shayanne’s sound is one that consumes the myriad of stories woven through the world around her from t.v, film and her own life, and expresses them in her own form.
