Point Break was a British pop ensemble, established and overseen by Danielle Barnett, who secured a contract with WEA and experienced a brief period of success from 1999 to 2000.
Originally, Brett Adams and David Oliver formed a band named Aurora alongside George Trotter, performing at local venues across England. Upon signing with Warner Music, they adopted the name Point Break, inspired by the 1991 action film Point Break.
Introduced as a boy band in 1999, the lineup featured Brett Adams and David "Ollie" Oliver, both of whom had acting backgrounds on Byker Grove. Declan Bennett became a member following the departure of original member Jon due to health issues. During their active year, the group achieved five UK hit singles and released an album. The band also included American vocalist Dustin Strong and Nicol Lampert, who contributed as singers and songwriters while touring with the group until its dissolution.
