In October of 2006 Geoff Piper joined the founding members of the Bay Area band Carousel; Steve Pellow, Eli Murrie, and Gregg Dean. They spent the following months writing and recording new songs and emerged in 2007 as PinPoint Mercy. PinPoint Mercy delivers melodic, hard rock music supported by meaningful lyrics. Throughout 2007, the band has shared the stage with several nationally touring acts and played many of San Francisco’s most revered venues. They currently perform all over Northern California and, with the aid of Bay Area star-producer Scott Tusa’s immeasurable talent and vision, are set to release their debut album "Bitter Rust Parade" in January 2008 (recorded at Take Root Recording Studio SF, CA).
There is currently a search for two types of bands for record label consideration.
