Luna Halo

Luna Halo is a Nashville-based rock band. The lead singer, Nathan Barlowe initially honed his skills with Reality Check, a modern rock Christian outfit, before forming Luna Halo in 1999.[citation needed]

In 2000, Luna Halo was fronted by former Reality Check front man Nathan Barlowe and released their debut CD Shimmer on Christian music label Sparrow Records.[citation needed] Even though Shimmer was praised by critics, Luna Halo left Sparrow Records and the Christian music industry before recording their next album due to creative differences.[citation needed]

Barlowe replaced guitarist MacIntosh with his younger brother Cary Barlowe, Aaron Jenkins replaced bassist Brad Minor, and drummer Chris Coleman replaced Jonathan Smith, completing the lineup for the new Luna Halo.[citation needed]

Rumors of an imminent major label deal began to surface in 2004, and a deal with DreamWorks, was announced prematurely, but later proved to be untrue, after negotiations broke down. The band released another EP, Wasting Away (originally recorded as a demo for DreamWorks) and opened shows for artists Velvet Revolver, Hoobastank, Collective Soul, Ours, Needtobreathe and Family Force 5.[citation needed]

In 2005, Luna Halo were signed to American Recordings and began work on their second album, Luna Halo. Originally scheduled for a Summer 2006 release, the album was plagued with delays.[citation needed] This was due to American Recordings owner Rick Rubin's departure from Warner Bros to Columbia Records.[citation needed] The album was finally released in late 2007.[citation needed]

On June 18, 2008, the band released a statement stating that drummer Chris Coleman was leaving the band to take a break from music and go back to school.[citation needed] In November, Jonathan Smith (the original Luna Halo drummer) rejoined the band.[citation needed]

In May 2008, the band shot a music video for the song "World On Fire", directed by Chris Grieder alongside Flying Dog Films.[citation needed]

On November 24, 2008, the band released a statement via MySpace stating that Aaron Jenkins would be leaving the band, because he was expecting the birth of his second child. On December 16, the band announced Victor Broden as their new bass player.[citation needed]
