pureNRG Signs with Fervent

Posted by Kevan Breitinger Mar 9, 2007

“We are so excited about the signing of pureNRG,” says Susan Riley, Word Label Group’s Senior Vice-President of A&R and Publishing. “The group members are actually living the ‘tween’ years, and their positive message and influence will have a lasting effect on their fans and peers that are facing critical life choices during this time.”

pureNRG is comprised of Jordan Yates, 14, Caroline Williams, 12, and Carolyne Myers, 11, who live up to the ‘pureNRG’ moniker with their vibrant stage performance and innate talent. Each member of pureNRG began competing on the national dance circuit at a young age and has now been performing as a group for three years. Renowned manager, Norman Miller (Casting Crowns, Nichole Nordeman, Jump5), developed the group and was active in the selection process of each member. In addition to their individual talents and abilities, Jordan, Caroline, and Carolyne also bring their own set of influences and musical tastes to the group.

pureNRG’s debut project was produced by Rob Hawkins (Jackson Waters) with vocals produced by Mark Hammond (Everlife, Cheetah Girls, Ashley Tisdale). The album features engaging pop songs that showcase the strong vocal talents of the three group members. From the bouncy opening track “360,” to their cover of the spirited 80’s classic “Footloose,” to the hope-filled message of “When I Get To Heaven,” pureNRG delivers an infectious pop sound that is nothing but fresh and innovative.

pureNRG has already been selected for Disney’s Incubator program featuring the most up and coming new tween artists. The group is also booked for several 2007 festivals. Their vivacious stage performances include choreographed dance routines, gymnastics and, of course, their dynamic vocal abilities.

However, it’s not all work for Jordan, Caroline, and Carolyne, who remain very active in their churches, youth activities and mission trips. Their faith is the central focus of their lives; music and dancing is simply a way to communicate that message.

“Most kids our age don’t get to do what we do,” says Jordan. “We feel really blessed and we want to become positive role models for our fans. If we can make a difference in someone’s life, then that’s what we need to be doing.”
