Members are…
Sean Foreman-vocals, keyboards, synthesizer.
Nathaniel Motte-vocals, keyboards, synthesizer.

3oh!3 is anything but an average band. It consists of Sean Foreman and Nathaniel Motte, both of whom were born in Boulder Colorado. Pronounced three-oh-three their name is actually the area-code of their hometown. It is nearly impossible to compare 3oh!3 to any other band. Not only is their sound fresh, but it is also unique, something that is very refreshing in a time when a lot of music has a very similar sound. Their first full length album, entitled “Want” can best be described as a mix of hip-hop, electronica, and rapcore. When addicting dance floor beats combine with sharp witty lyrics, what you get is 3oh!3.

Although 3oh!3 has not yet received widespread recognition, they have managed to become part of some very prestigious music festivals, including the Van’s Warped Tour, and Bamboozle Left, where they shared the stage with music legends such as AFI and My Chemical Romance, and are planning to start a concert tour of their own. If you are sick and tired of listening to the same mainstream music, and are looking for something new, original, and awesome, then check out 3oh!3. With free downloads on their myspace, you truly have nothing to lose.
