Bio
Farpoint was formed in Sumter, South Carolina, USA in early 1997 with the musical meeting of guitarist/keyboardist Kevin Jarvis and drummer Rick Walker. Through 5 studio albums and more than 12 years of live performances at festivals, clubs, and fundraisers, Farpoint have continued to walk their own musical path and to evolve and grow. Currently Jarvis and Walker are joined by bass guitarist Frank Tyson, vocalist Dean Hallal, flautist/singer Jennifer Meeks, and guitarist Dave Auerbach.
Farpoint’s vision is to create melodic and powerful positive music that is accessible without compromising its artistic integrity. The band’s music can be described as folky art rock with a progressive edge. Diversity is the key to the Farpoint sound, with influences ranging from progressive, folk, and hard rock to Celtic, classical, new age and bluegrass. Instrumentation includes the standard rock instruments augmented by classical guitar, mandolin, flute, various types of percussion and layered vocal harmonies.
