Details
The 8 Bit Big Band is a Grammy-winning, genre-bending jazz orchestra formed around the love of video games, their associated soundtracks, and the musical desire to explore and expand an ever-growing contemporary body of music which the group has lovingly dubbed The Great Video Game Songbook. They are a symphonic jazz orchestra of 30 of New York Citys finest musicians rearranging beloved music from the video game soundtracks of the last 30 years into genre fusing contemporary large ensemble music. The group formed in 2017 with the release of their debut album, Press Start, followed by their sophomore album, Choose Your Character, in 2018, and their most recent release, Backwards Compatible, in 2021. Since the inception of the band, they have garnered an online fanbase aggregating over 20 million views on YouTube and over 200,000 subscribers, followers, and listeners across the globe, in addition to selling out concert venues in New York City.
