OG8 Premieres “Finish Line” Music Video

It might sound funny to have an album’s first single be titled “Finish Line” but for the band Original 8 (OG8), its starting and ending points have never been determined by anyone other than themselves. Is it a race to place first? Or is it a personal accomplishment that has been stirring one’s soul for decades. Only the listener can decide.

“Finish Line”, a track that weaves together rock and Americana canvases, is from OG8’s Recognize album due October 14 via Beat Farm Music. The album is named after OG8 lead singer Jaime Lynch’s personal mantra. It’s also par for the course; in OG8’s previous 2025-26 releases “W.O.M.A.N” and “Change”, a common thread of self-empowerment and a slight sense of a chip on their shoulder has listeners immediately connected to the band’s positive outlook.

Based in Portland, OR, the driving force behind OG8 is founder and guitarist Troy Williver. Bent on being a band that doesn’t rely on a record label for both success and acknowledgment, in early 2023 Williver established Beat Farm Music. From there, the OG8 band took hold. Williver’s search for a vocalist that matched the values and could both command the stage and captivate the audience in a way that accentuates OG8’s eclectic rock-Americana-blues sound led him to Lynch.
