New Found Glory (formerly A New Found Glory) is an American rock band from Coral Springs, Florida, formed in 1997. Founding members were lead vocalist Jordan Pundik, guitarists Chad Gilbert and Steve Klein, bassist Ian Grushka and drummer Joe Moreno. Current drummer Cyrus Bolooki replaced Moreno after only a handful of shows and the lineup has since remained unchanged.[2]  Their brand of music is said to have been drawn from influences such as punk revival bands Green Day and NOFX, to hardcore acts like Hatebreed  and Madball.[3][4]  The band are noted for their blend of pop melodies with the energy and fast tempos of classic punk rock.[5]  Subsequently, they are now widely regarded as a key pioneer in the fusion genre of pop punk.[6][7][8][9][10]  Also noted for their energetic live performances,[11][12][13]  the fivesome have garnered a devout following over the course of their career.

After releasing a home recorded EP, It's All About the Girls in 1997, the band started touring around the East Coast area and built a cult following before releasing debut album, Nothing Gold Can Stay (1999). It was distributed on independent label Eulogy Recordings and sold in excess of 300,000 copies. The following year, debut single "Hit or Miss" charted on the US Modern Rock Chart and exposed the band to a wider audience. Their subsequent three studio albums; New Found Glory (2000), Sticks and Stones (2002), and Catalyst (2004) all charted on the Billboard 200 and achieved gold certifications by the RIAA.

After a break from touring, the band worked with Thom Panunzio on their critically acclaimed fifth album, Coming Home (2006). The record drew influences from classic rock and marked a stylistic change that differed largely from their earlier material. After a spell without a contract, the band signed with independent label Bridge Nine Records and released a new EP titled, Tip of The Iceberg (2008). Their sixth and most recent studio album, Not Without a Fight (2009), was recorded and produced by Mark Hoppus before they signed with current label Epitaph Records.
