Without Grace are a rock band from Guildford, Surrey. They have recently announced on their web page that they will be taking a break from the band to pursue any other careers. "Without Grace", originally called Jelutong, met at the age of 13 at school. Jon and Matt where the first members of the band to play together, playing in bands from the age of 11. After leaving school the band changed their name to "Without Grace" and signed to Management company "Hug Management". In 2004 the band signed to Universal and recorded their debut single 20 Yards Away which was never released after the band was dropped when their A&R left. The band, still determined, recorded their debut album at Invincible Studios and released it in 2006 through Genius Twin. The band split in 2007 due to the members drifting apart musically. Singer Markus formed a solo project, entitled Spotlight Cannibal, keeping Jonty on drums, but more recently he has been fronting the hard rock band The Royal Cartel who have supported Marillion. Matt went on to from Flame to Fire with previous members of rock band Radiate, Steve Bradfield and G Rubery.
The band reformed for a one-off performance at Guildford's The Boileroom on September 15 2011. Unsurprisingly, they rocked.

Without Grace would later perform to over 700 people at the GP2 Series launch in Valencia on April 2006, which was attended by the likes of Lewis Hamilton, Bernie Ecclestone, Flavio Briatore and Patrick Kluivert.
