Breaking Point

Shortly after its founding, the band's big break came when its guitarist, Justin Rimer, took a job at Ardent Studios. Through connections he made, the band was able to record a demo. Local airplay led to the band being signed by Wind-up Records, a label distributed by Sony BMG. Breaking Point's debut album, Coming of Age, was released in 2001 with a follow-up, Beautiful Disorder, released in 2005. Their songs have been used in a number of films, including The Scorpion King, Dragonball Z, and Fantastic Four, as well as a trailer for Biker Boyz. Additionally, their song "One of a Kind" was the entrance music for professional wrestler Rob Van Dam. In mid-2006, Breaking Point toured the United States with Creed frontman Scott Stapp. As of July 2007, guitarist Justin Rimer has been performing as a member of 12 Stones. Brett recently became the frontman of local Memphis band Aurora. Greg Edmonson now teaches art at Fayette Academy in Somerville, Tennessee. In 2009, they passed on the name Breaking Point to a Miami band consisting of musicians Amanda Mallo, Patricia Dorta, and Erynn Chapman.
