One of the most notable bands to break out of the Southern Florida music scene in the late Nineties,
NONPOINT will release an acoustic digital EP,
"Cut The Chord", on December 8 via their own
954 Records in partnership with
Rocket Science Ventures /
RED /
Sony. The five-song effort features acoustic renditions of
NONPOINT classics
"What A Day",
"Circles",
"Rabia",
"Victim" and
"Your Signs".
Formed in 1998, the hard rock quartet from Ft. Lauderdale burst on the scene with its major label debut,
"Statement", on
MCA Records. Since then, they have sold nearly 700,000 albums and played over 1,000 shows. Known for its dynamic performances,
NONPOINT has shared the stage with such acts as
MUDVAYNE,
SEVENDUST,
DISTURBED,
HELLYEAH,
DROWNING POOL and
PAPA ROACH, and has taken part in
Ozzfest.
In continuation of a successful 10-plus-year career,
NONPOINT is back with a new guitarist, management and record label. The band has entered
Belle City Sound in Racine, Wisconsin to work on their full-length album with
YEP! Productions'
Chad Gray and
Greg Tribbett (also members of
MUDVAYNE and
HELLYEAH) at the helm producing. The CD is slated for a spring 2010 release.
To close out the momentous year,
NONPOINT will perform live in Madison, Ft. Lauderdale and Tempe (see dates below) and in celebration of the holidays, 500 digital downloads will be given to the first 500 ticket purchasers at each show.
