    Who we are

    VIII is the roman numeral for the number 8. Prounced as “vee” or “v-triple-i” or simply “8,” this symbol became apart of the Hamilton music underground in Ontario, Canada. Now operating in LA, we are broadcasting to a global audience while continuing to have a local impact. We are the new generation and this is our music and art.

    VIII Music Radio is our outlet to bring together a global community. Enjoy one of our immersive experiences, collaborate with other aspiring artists, or be discovered as we highlight the best new songs each year.
