Welcome to the official focuspoint MySpace page. focuspoint consists of singer/guitarist Chris Watson, guitarist Jeremy Olson, bassist Paolo Mottola (Sub Scribe) and drummer Danny Woodward. The guys met while attending Stadium High School in Tacoma and created the band in 2000. After a hiatus to pursue higher education in 2003, the band regrouped in late 2005 and has since played consistently at various venues in Puget Sound.
In early 2007, the band entered the studio to record its first album, “Lost in the Sound.” The 18-track album features all original songs spanning the band’s seven-year history and kicks off with three strong singles, “Never Again,” “Sweet Release,” and “We Came Alive.” The singles represent the album’s themes of angst, heartache and restlessness.
After playing more than 20 shows in support of “Lost in the Sound” in 2007, the band went back into the studio in early 2008 torecord the five-track “Alright EP” led by thetitle track. Inspired by early 90s grunge and alternative rock, the CD shows influeces of Nirvana, Rage Against the Machine, Incubus, and Silverchair. The “Alright EP” will be available beginning March 8, 2008.

Do you have plans for this Saturday night? If not you should come to Hells Kitchen off of 6th & Proctor in Tacoma. I am throwing a hiphop bash party. I have selected 5 acts to perform from the Seattle / Tacoma area. The music starts at 9PM sharp, and I advise getting there before then. This isn't a show that is going to have just one headliner, ALL the groups know how to perform and put on a good show. On top of that the Jagergirls, Dollsquad gogo dancers, and monster promo teams will be on location giving away free giveaways, while Nasty Left, Kalen. w/ SK & SPACEMAN, iLL G Sektions, evergreenOne w/ Todd Sykes and 10Th & Commerce perform through the night. It is $5.00 at the door 21 years of age and over.
The sun is here, but dang it's still cold! Thank god that Spring is almost here so we can warm up!!!! That reminds me, Saturday, March 21st, 2009 I am having a party at Hell's Kitchen. This party is a hiphop bash with 5 great performances (Nasty Left, Kalen W/ special guests! , ill G Sek,evergreen One w/ Todd Sykes, 10th & commerce) from the puget sound, that all know how to lay it down. Along with the music, Jager & Monster promo teams will be giving away free stuff. Dollsquad Gogo dancers & models will also be there. So remember not this coming Saturday but the following one, Hell's Kitchen will be the place to be. $5 / 8PM / 21+
I hope all is going good for you. I just wanted to give ya a sneak peak at my next party. I went out and found the best local hiphop that the 253 area code has to offer, grabed a saturday night at Hell's Kitchen, that just so happened to be the first day of spring
So come on out March 21st to Hell's Kitchen to see the best hiphop that Tacoma has to offer!
Kalen. Nasty Left illa g sek evergreenOne with Todd "Mother F'n" Sykes! 10 & Commerce

Hey guys, great to hear that your are playing in the showbox. That's awesome. I wish it was on the 21st though because I have a huge life altering 3 subject exam on sat 21 morning. So I can't but I miss you guys so much. You know I would be there if I could. Awesome you are going first though. Miss you see you guys next time! ~wafer
I hope you had a good New Years! Next Friday at Hell's Kitchen is my 26th birthday party, and I hope you can make it! I have 5 bands performing, the jagergirls will be giving away free stuff! The very sexy dollsquad gogo girls will be there rocking out and selling the 2009 dollsquad calender. Last year 220+ people showed up, and had a great time. Music starts at 9pm!
Hey How are my boys! How are you all doing? Look I know I haven't been able to make it to the last two concerts, but that doesn't mean I didn't try or that you should stop playing all together. Come on guys, I miss your music. When am I gonna hear you guys play live again? Hope you have a Merry Xmas and great new years. Luvs to all, ~sheafer (random bar slut)
Just letting you know that me and Ina have moved to Toronto, that's why we haven't come to a show for a while. You probanly won't see us in the near future if you're not planing to come out East. We'll be back in 2 or 3 years :) So hold on, write a few good tunes and keep rockin'! Although we're missing the trips to SEA to come to see your shows....We'll be back anyways :) Hope the EP is bringing you some luck in getting a contract for an album.
