5-Finger Discount is a 4-piece, aggressive punk/rock band from Asheville, NC. They draw their musical influences from a diverse group of styles. Things like punk/rock riffs, 80's speed metal leads, and pop melodies are one of the ways to describe their sound. They are currently touring regionally and gigging locally in support of their debut album, “Greatest Hits Vol.1” which was released beginning of Jan 03'.
5-Finger Discount was formed in March of 2000 when Jack, Tony, David, and Wes began playing their new brand of music together.
