Tween pop/dance group pureNRG has decided to call it quits in 2010.
The trio – Jordan, Caroline and Carolyne – have racked up quite an impressive resume, considering they’ve only been a group since 2007 and they’re still barely into puberty. (Well, Jordan is probably almost 17 now, but Caroline and Carolyne are close to 15 and 14 respectively.)
Their self-titled 2007 made them the Top Selling Artist At Christian Retail in 2007; their sophomore project, Here We Go Again, landed them at #2 on the Christian Soundscan chart and in the Top 10 Christian Albums at iTunes; and their last album, The Real Thing, debuted at #20 on Billboard’s Top 200 Chart and #1 on the Christian Soundscan chart. They’ve shared the stage with Casting Crowns, tobyMac, BarlowGirl, Mercy Me, Brandon Heath and Skillet, and enjoyed coverage from Billboard magazine, Barnes & Noble.com, PowerSource magazine, About.com, JCTV, Daystar TV, JesusFreakHideout.com, CBN.com, NewReleaseTuesday.com and airplay on Disney radio.
As a farewell and thanks to their fans, the pop trio will be releasing a Best Of CD/DVD collection on July 20, which will be available exclusively through Family Christian Stores, along with one final tour before the end of the year.
