84001 began in upstate NY as a lo-fi/drone/experimental music bedroom recording project in the mid-1990's.

A short-run self released cassette was distributed in 1997 to a small number of college radio stations, independent music magazines, and friends.

More tracks were recorded in the summer of 1997 and another tape release titled '84001-prospectUs' followed.

In the fall of 1998, '84001-whatwouldhealthiswoundedsoul?' was released. Masters and any copies of that tape have since been lost.

From 1999-2005, 84001 was dormant.

84001 returned in Nashville, TN in late 2005. By mid-2007, the cd-r 'we look for things to make us go' was completed.

Jimmy Thorn joined 84001 in 2008. The band began focusing on live performance and has been playing shows in Nashville and throughout the southeast US.

As a duo, 84001 has released the CD-r "The Search for Incandescent Glaciers" and the track, "Chi'el'ah," for a split 12" with psych-folk artist Ancient Ocean.

84001 explores a variety of sonic territories through use of guitars, synths, and other electronic hardware. Influences include experimental and ambient music styles, drone, psychedlic, minimal, 8-bit, americana, hip-hop, kraut, post-rock, pop, shoegaze, dub, and noise.

Most 84001 performances are designed specifically for each location using both composition and improvisation.
