Born From a Life in Music
SOULiD8 is the culmination of a life lived through music, a journey shaped by constant songwriting and years under stage lights. After heavy-hitting original rock bands, high-energy cover shows, and intimate acoustic sets across Australia and beyond, SOULiD8 emerged as a new chapter.
Old-School Songwriting, New-School Tech
The project was born from a desire to bridge grounded, traditional songwriting with the limitless frontiers of modern technology. Every track is built on strong hooks and structure, then pushed into a bigger, more cinematic world.
Influences: Neon, Grit and Big Choruses
SOULiD8’s sound is a deliberate contradiction: soaring 80s synth-pop textures over heavy rock guitars and massive, hook-driven melodies. Think the neon-lit sophistication of Duran Duran and Depeche Mode, the raw power of Mötley Crüe and Def Leppard, the stadium anthems of OneRepublic, U2 and Oasis, and the grit of NIN, all colliding into something nostalgic yet futuristic.
