MASTERPLAN/Ex-RIOT Vocalist MIKE DIMEO Announces TENPOINT Project

August 8, 2008

Vocalist Mike DiMeo (MASTERPLAN, RIOT, THE LIZARDS) has announced the formation of a brand new project, TENPOINT. A sample of the band's music is available at the TENPOINTMySpace page.

Commented DiMeo: "I was approached by Steve Seigerman last year, but it wasn't until the last couple of months that we were able to sit down and write… It really is a mixture of ideas and sounds… but mainly it's just really heavy music with blues singing over it."

The band recently completed work on the initial demo recordings and is currently in negotiations for a worldwide release.

TENPOINT is:

Mike DiMeo - Vocals/Keyboards
Steve Seigerman - Guitars
Chris Kozikowski - Bass
Doug Bohn - Drums

DiMeo, regarded as one of the finest vocalists in the heavy rock scene, first came to prominence after joining the legendary New York City band RIOT prior to the recording of 1994's "Nightbreaker". He went on to record six studio albums and one live album with the group before departing to join MASTERPLAN for the recording of "MK II" in 2006.
