EIGHT DAYS GONE

Neill Steinke (vocals, guitar)
John Zadeh (drums)
Gary Bonneau (bass)
Steve Miceli (lead guitar)
"Were not a bunch of idiots and drunks," says Neill Steinke, singer-songwriter for Eight Days Gone. "Were just really nice guys with different musical maturity than the teenage angst-ridden rock being shoved down the publics throat. This is a time and a generation looking for what were doing--guitar rock thats soulful, sincere and intimate, that goes beyond the surface and makes a connection."
For this band from off the beaten path, Pennsylvanias Lehigh Valley (the biggest city being Allentown), the road to their second independent album, "Silence To The Naysayers" (Ragin Grace Music) has been a struggle. The band has lost money, lost time, lost relationships and, in one case, nearly lost fingers. "Some in the music industry just dont get it. But we know we have something special," says Steinke, "and we wont give up."
Living at the base of a mountain, Steinke and drummer John Zadeh risked going broke for a fourth time, took out a loan and gutted an abandoned trailer which was left in the middle of a landfill, turning it into the recording studio where they crafted their latest album. The seclusion enabled Steinke to craft a folk based album with heavy guitars and pounding drums that has a storytelling type of feel. Produced by Joe Smith, the Orlando-based producer/engineer whose name appears on albums that have sold a combined 100 million copies, "Silence To The Naysayers" follows a pair of self-produced efforts, 2002s "In The Absence Of Subtlety" (an album produced, recorded and paid for entirely by the band) and 2003s "303 Sessions" EP. "Joe wanted to do a record like this for a long time" says Steinke. "He believes in what were doing and called in a lot of favors for us."
None of the members of Eight Days Gone were actually born in Pennsylvania. Neil Steinke (named after Neil Diamond, believe it or not) was born in Seattle, John Zadeh in New Mexico, bassist Gary Bonneau in Brooklyn, and lead guitarist Steve Miceli in Delaware. Steinke moved 24 times before his family finally settled in the Lehigh Valley. By that time, the one-time drummer discovered Nirvana and Van Morrison and had picked up his mothers acoustic guitar and began writing songs.
Meeting each other in high school, Steinke and Zadeh quickly began collaborating together. After high school, the two decided to try out the burgeoning music scene in Wisconsin where they quickly maxed out their credit cards. "I wouldnt change that experience for the world," says Zadeh. "I rather learn tearing it up in the clubs in a foreign town then wasting away in the some garage going nowhere. However, down on their luck, they decided to go back to PA and give music one last shot. "At this time Id gone broke three times, I was mentally challenged and asked myself is this the direction I want to take, but music was my life, a part of who I am and I made the definitive...........
