Eightfold Path

About Eightfold Path

"'The path that leads us to musical enlightenment is said to be eightfold in nature.' Formed in the fall of 2001, Eightfold Path finds itself on a journey in search of undiscovered musical styles, textures, and dynamics. By weaving layers of sound through introspective vocals, this quintet's ethereal sound will penetrate the very nature of your existence. With Giovanni Gentile and Bob Jones sharing guitars and keyboards, Katrina Patterson on vocals, and rhythmically driven by the drums and bass of Bob Wilcox and Chuck Howard, the band has set its sights on the explosive Detroit scene. The beauty of their music resides deep within the uncomplicated melodic trance of their souls and is communicated through surreal arrangements that escape the present. It is from this that one can make the realization that the diversity of sounds emanating from our collective consciousness has made the journey by way of the Eightfold Path."
