[edit] History

The bandmates started the group in 2003, after the demise of their previous group, known as twenty-4-seven.

The name afterEIGHT came to be when Vocalist/Bassist Bryson Phillips and former member Justin Lamproe worked in a small restaurant named Lee's Diner. After looking for a practice place the owner allowed them to practice their as long as it was after eight'o clock. After weeks of saying "Practice tonight.. after eight". Hence the name afterEIGHT.

After a recent overhaul and the addition of new members Andrew Welch and Jonny Williams.. the band has taken a change in style.

With the release of their album "Better Late Than Never", afterEIGHT is finally ready to sweep the American Midwest

In their mere 3 and a half year existence the band's emotive brand of rock and roll has brought them to the top of the thriving Tulsa music scene, along the way making the band one of the most sought after acts in the state and garnering rave reviews from industry personnel around the country.

The band's enthusiasm has secured them support slots with bands such as Anberlin, Kutless, Falling Up, Skillet, SonicFlood, Relient K, subseven, Kids in the Way, Hawk Nelson, Project 86, Dizmas, Rooney, The Academy is.., Bowling for Soup, The Vanished, and The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus.
