Not long after moving to Charleston, SC in June of 2015, Hans met up with guitarist Chris Fulmer at an all original open mic night called "Holy City Confessionals", held at Hometeam BBQ in West Ashley, Charleston, SC. From that time on, the two worked tirelessly to write new material and form a full working band. It didn't take long to put together an all-star cast of musicians to round out the group, including Dan Wilson on Drums/Percussion (Deepwater Soul Society, Jordan Igoe, Kara Hesse Band), Matt Thompson on Bass (Sol Driven Train, Wadata), and Zach Hudson on Fiddle (Deer Creek Sharpshooters). Together, the band has defined an edgy, vocally driven ensemble that embodies the true definition of story telling. With infinite inspiration from haunting tales of heroism, loss, love and personal growth in historic Charleston, SC, the group has quickly amassed a body of work that will draw you in to the old cobblestone laden, foggy backstreets of the South. The Eighty Sixers have released two singles from their forthcoming full length album. "Devil's Tea" tells the incredible story of Lavinia Fisher, possibly the first documented serial killer who ran the Six Mile Wayfarer Inn with her husband, John Fisher, in the early 19th Century. This track was recorded at Truphonic Recording Studio by Elliott Elsey and Mastered by Vlado Meller. "Last Train" is a driving tale of love lost. Your quintessential love story gone wrong. This track was recorded at Mantis Records, engineered and mastered by Mitch Webb. The full length record will be available Spring 2017 and Pre-Orders will be available March 1 2017. PRE-ORDER NOW
