8 Years Difference

Monday, June 9
8:30PM-10:30PM

A Southern Rock band from Cheraw, Mississippi. Brothers, Lee and Woodrow Pounds formed the band  "8 Years Difference" in early 2004. The band originated from a passion older brother Lee had as a teen. Woodrow, eight years younger picked up the guitar at an early age and things really started to come together.

Within three short years, Woodrow's ability to play the guitar  simply exploded and along with Lee's amazing vocals the pair have become a band in the making.
They began to write their own material in late 2004 and after three years, they are currently finishing the studio production of their first CD.

The band performs a varied selection of cover songs, including "Lynyrd Skynyrd", "Eric Clapton", "Jimi Hendrix", and Country Titles, by "Van Zandt", "Kenny Chesney", "John Anderson", and "David Alan Coe".  Songs by, "The Allman Bros.", "Elvis Presley", "Poison", and "Led Zeppelin."

Making their debut at the Abita Springs, Louisiana first annual crawfish festival on April 23, 2005, where they received a standing ovation for their rendition of "Free Bird".

In June 2005 Danny Hammonds joined the band as drummer. Danny has been the most faithful and dedicated member of the band to date. He has become like a member of the family.

In October 2006 Glyn King joined the band as keyboard player, guitarist, and back up vocalist. Longtime friend of Danny Hammonds, both were former members of the band, "Out Of Order".

On September 22, 2007 "8 Years Difference" entered the studio to begin recording their first original CD.
