8 Bit Love

8 Bit Love have been not-so-quietly making a name for themselves across their proclaimed home of Melbourne during the last two years. After walking away from 2010 with a few cool trophies under their belt, such as an APRA Songwriters Award and the VicRocks Get Equipped Grant, this year they’ve managed to play some extraordinary festivals and support shows, get in the studio, play across the state and release the single 3:32. Nothing is getting in the way from doing what they love: making music and making people dance.
