8MM (PRON “EIGHT MILLIMETER”)
Founded by legendary producer/mixer Sean Beavan and his multi-talented wife, Juliette Beavan, 8mm (pron. “eight millimeter”), were one of the first bands to embrace DIY and strategic licensing. They quickly became championed by luminaries such as Nic Harcourt, Geoff Boucher, Kevin Bronson, Jason Pettigrew and Antiquiet. One of the most licensed bands in the industry (“You’re The Worst”, “The Flash”, “Being Human”, “Underworld: Awakening”, “Dirty Little Liars”, “Mistresses”, “Grey’s Anatomy”, “Nip Tuck”, “Nikita”, “One Tree Hill”, ” “Cold Case”, “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” etc.), their powerful live performances and intriguing videos have earned them an ever-increasing hardcore following.
