Artist History The band Nightwatch can be traced back to the year 1999 when it was called Eternity. Original members included two cousins, Jason Alvesteffer and Kyle Lu. The band was formed in November for an upcoming audition for a big yearly concert their high school. After the performance, the two guitar players stayed together as a band for future performances. Later, frontman Jason found out that the band name "Eternity" was already licensed to another group. He then registered the new band name "Nightwatch" to resolve this conflict.
