[edit] History
Fingertight began as a local group playing in the San Francisco area, and self-released an album which they promoted heavily through internet channels such as mp3.com.[1] Signing with Columbia Records in 2001, the group released its major-label debut, In the Name of Progress, in 2003. The album was produced by Tobias Miller and Bill Appleberry, and the group performed at Lollapalooza following its release.[2] A single from the album, "Guilt (Hold Down)", hit #34 on the US Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart that same year.[3] The group broke up later in the 2000s, with lead singer Scott Rose moving on to the project Sleep in Fame and drummer Kirk Shelton playing with The Few.
