8 Ball Aitken & Taya Chani are heavyweights of the Australian blues-rock-soul scene and have teamed up with a new album project ‘Nightbird’.
The first single and title-track ‘Nightbird’ immediately hit #1 on the Australian AMRAP Regional Charts in March 2025 for two weeks in a row as did their second single ‘Miss You The Most’ in May. This is proving to be a winning combination.
8 Ball & Taya are embarking on their second national tour over the autumn months and playing the Semaphore Workers Club on Friday 7th November (PUT IT IN YOUR DIARY AND BUY A TICKET!)
If you don’t know them:
8-Ball has toured the world for more than a decade performing across twenty countries to date. 8 Ball moved to Nashville, Tennessee, USA in 2012 and worked for nine years with many of the best in the blues and roots business today. As well a s a collection of Australian music industry awards he acheived second place in the 2021 International Cigar Box Guitar Festival – New Orleans.
Taya is a Sydney based soul singer releasing her debut album 'Restless Heart' in 2019 with widespread airplay and rave reviews.
8 Ball and Taya’s mutual love for Southern American music, blues, country, soul and fancy jazz chords brought them together. In 2023, the duo released their first collaboration, ‘Only Guiding Light’ from album ‘Ice Cream Man 2’ that both hit #1 on the Australian Blues & Roots Charts. While on their first Australian tour in 2022, they began cowriting songs, realising they had an album worth of songs and set a studio date. The cast of musicians on the new ‘Nightbird’ album include USA saxophone legend Buddy Leach (George Thorogood & The Destroyers), drummer extraordinaire Declan Kelly, and 8 Ball’s younger brother Dillion James Aitken on keys.
