notes

Loni began her musical career in high school singing with some local kids who's older brother owned a recording studio. She started vocal lessons with the Masterwork Choral foundation in Morristown, NJ and continued on to Berklee College of Music where she studied vocal performance.

After moving to New York City to further her musical career, Loni studied at Mannes College of Music, the New School Guitar Studies Center and with numerous vocal teachers including Juiliard graduate Mary Feinsinger. She has performed in various venues around New York City including: The Bitter End, The Living room, The Cutting Room, the C Note, CB's Gallery and the Knitting Factory.

A former member of the Nashville Songwriters Association, she was accepted into their annual song camp studying with hit songwriters, John Ims, Angela Kasset, Ralph Murphy and most notably Hugh Prestwood. Loni has participated in various conferences and seminars including the Songwriters Expo in Los Angeles, the Philadelphia Music Conference, the Guitar Institute songwriter's workshop in Nashville, Tennessee, SXSW in Austin, Texas, and the Independent Music Forum. In the Fall of 2001 Loni was chosen to participate in the BMI professional songwriter's workshop.
With the guidance of producer Godfrey Diamond, Loni produced a three song demo of original music. One of her songs "Forever" received an award of merit from the Unisong International Song Contest. With the help of some friends, the demo tape found its way to music industry veteran and well known concert promoter, Ron Delesner whose encouragement inspired Loni to continue writing and to go on to complete her latest cd, PIECES produced in 2000 by Steve Dwire.

Loni is currently performing around New York City and writing new material for her second cd.

Loni was recently seen on a Fox Five Network televsion special segment on Paul Colby and the Bitter End. You can view the segment on her website www.lonipont.com.

  • spare and devastating
    author: clint

    The spare but well-targeted music allows Loni Pont's emotive vocals to carry the album. Some of the most affecting music you'll ever hear. When you add the music to the true tragedy that this is currently her only album, you might want to order some zoloft along with this mandatory CD purchase.

  • Great music to listen to, "on a rainy night."
    author: jeffrey ginsberg

    It's a quiet rainy evening, just you, the one you love and the music. Beautiful, emotional, perfect. My favorite is Empty. I am surprised it has not been recored by other artisits.

  • I'm Lovin' It!
    author: L.L.C.

    Loving this CD!! The lyrics are beautifully written. Your voice was great but i think you have more to offer. Keep up the great work!!!!

  • Pieces are falling nicely into place
    author: Graham

    The first sign of a great album is being able to play it without wanting to skip to the next track. The second sign is finding that it’s growing on you. The third sign is finding that no other album really matters. The fourth sign is returning to it to discover that it sounds even better than when you first fell in love with it. At the moment I’m at sign three.

    Loni finally caught up with your music, warm soothing. This is my type of music.

  • Romance, Emotion, Inspriration - sung with voice, spoken with heart
    author: D.p.

    Each song is a trip through the lullaby of your heart strings. A wonderfully romantic and ispirational CD. If you like music that touches, you must own Pieces.

  • Her lyrics combined with her soulful voice touch your inner core.
    author: Sue Maserjian

    Her songs are not only beautifully written - but sung with such incredible power and compassion that you can't help being transported to another time and place. It's an amazing experience!

  • A SOUND THAT TAKES ME TO THAT SPECIAL PLACE
    author: Joe Humel (mountain Studios)

    The cd was put together and produced very well. Loni seems to take me away with Her voice as well as lyrics, which frightfully hit close to home (at least for anyone who has ever been in love before),She lays it all on the line. Loni Pont is distinct in her sound and style. I highly recomend this CD...

  • If I scream loud enough will tomorrow hear me, "AWSOME"
    author: John Doe

    OBVIOUSLY DONE BY PROFESSIONALS.LYRICS,MUSIC,PRODUCTION,SOUND,ARRANGING,WERE ALL FROM THE HEART.WE NEED MORE OF THIS KIND OF QUALITY MUSIC.

  • Great new sound, relaxing yet spiritual at the same time!
    author: Jessie Schreoder

    A new voice with a new style, just what we need. A+
