3OH!3 is an American hip-hop electronica band from Boulder, Colorado. The band is named for the area code of that region, 303.[1]
In April 2008 the band, comprised of members Sean Foreman and Nathanial Motte, signed with Photo Finish Records (a subsidiary of Atlantic Records).[1] Foreman and Motte meant in a physics class at the University of Colorado. [2] The members were inspired by the underground hip-hop scene and Foreman, then a member of the band Eight Hour Orphans, invited Motte to mix some beats with him.[2] The two were helped early on by friendships they had made with local acts such as Grace Gale, Signal to Noise and Blackout Pact.[2] As Motte puts it, "We had it pretty easy. We had a lot of friends in bands who chaperoned us around and got us shows, and that was enough hype or buzz to get us going on our own."[2]
After playing the Denver leg of Warped Tour in 2007, 3OH!3 has signed on for all venues of Warped Tour 2008 and their song "Punk B****" is on the Warped Tour 2008 Tour Compilation.[3] The band has also played at national festivals such as Bamboozle Left and the Pemberton Festival in British Columbia.[1] 3OH!3 commonly uses skits and costumes during their live concerts.
3OH!3's new album "Want" will be released on July 8, 2008.
