About Me

Formed in 2002, Hollow Point was created by four men with one idea in mind, to make the best music we had it in us to make. Some of the faces have changed over the years and there have been many ups and downs but the core ethic of what we are trying to do remains the same. Drawing on a diverse range of influences from across the spectrum of rock we have built our own unique sound, written some memorable songs, played some remarkable gigs and carved out our own little niche within Glasgow’s rich and varied unsigned scene.
The plan now is to keep moving onwards and upwards. New material is coming thick and fast and the live performances are getting better and better. There has never been a better time than now.
You can download all three tracks as high quality 320 kbps mp3s at http://www.hollow-point.co.uk
We also have a second myspace page purely for featuring a selection from our previous EPs.
You can find it at http://www.myspace.com/hollowpointbackcatalogue
