OP8 is the musical collaboration of the multi-instrumentalist Lisa Germano, Howe Gelb, Joey Burns and John Convertino. Joey Burns and John Convertino form the band Calexico together and have both been members of Gelb's Giant Sand.[1] Their only album 1997's was Slush, which they toured as a band. Although a critical success the album did not perform commercially.[2]
Gelb briefly considered a follow up OP8 album with Juliana Hatfield, following her vocals on the track "Temptation of Egg" from the Giant Sand's 2000 album Chore of Enchantment. He said in a 2001 interview that he loved Hatfield's "voice so much I don't want to hear the other instruments so much as just to hear her sing." However he eventually abandoned the idea.[3]
