Cody Mirabal is an Indigenous musician from the village of Taos Pueblo in Northern New Mexico. Cody also know as “PH8” is a self taught artist who has been writing and producing music for over two decades.

During the Covid isolation, PH8 used his time to write and produce his first solo album, "Dr. PH8". The album title and artwork paid homeage to his favorite DC comic superhero known as Dr. Fate. Not only was the album debuting his long awaited solo work but also teased his newly formed band "Bees & Locusts" who were featured in one track.

He currently describes his sound as modern hip-hop with funk and soul influences combined with his Indigenous roots.
