NEW YORK, NY. (Top40 Charts/ Atlantic Records) - Photo Finish recording duo 3OH!3 is currently blowing up across North
America with its first-ever headline tour selling out nightly and its new single, "Don't
Trust Me," breaking out as a major crossover smash. The Boulder, Colorado-based duo will now make its network television debut with a performance on tonight's installment of NBC's "Last Call with Carson Daly," set to air at 1:35 am ET (check local listings). Then, on December 3rd, 3OH!3 will appear on FUEL.TV's "The Daily Habit," a half-hour daily show highlighting today's most-popular action sports celebrities, musicians, comedy, and cutting-edge new products, airing at 9:00 pm ET/PT and re-telecast the next day at 12:00 am ET, 8:30 am ET, and 3:00 pm ET (check local listings).
This evening will also see 3OH!3 - recently named "Artists To Watch" by Rolling Stone, which hailed the duo's "unhinged" live sets, "tuneful emo-pop hooks," "spastic electro grooves and aggro rapping" - taking a brief pause from its current tour to share an eagerly anticipated bill with Taking Back Sunday at Los Angeles' Club Nokia. The headline trek - sponsored by MySpace, the world's premier social network - will resume November 16th with a sold-out show at Harper's Ferry in Allston, Massachusetts. The tour has proven such a crowd-pleaser that a number of dates have had to be moved to larger venues to accommodate 3OH!3's rapidly increasing fanbase. The coast-to-coast excursion continues through mid-December, followed by a pair of long-sold-out homestate dates at Denver's The Ogden on January 16th and 17th (see below itinerary). From there, 3OH!3 will head to Europe for a full-scale tour alongside Katy Perry, set for stops in Sweden, Denmark, England, the Netherlands, France, Germany, and Belgium.
"Don't Trust Me," the first single from 3OH!3's full-length debut, "WANT," is shaping up to be a true sensation, having now entered Billboard's "Hot 100," while also rocketing into the Top 40 at Alternative outlets nationwide. The track's companion video clip - directed by Travis Kopach (Panic At The Disco, All Time Low, Circa Survive) and newcomer Isaac Ravishankara - recently received an all day "Unleashed!" premiere on MTV2 & mtvU, and is now in rotation at FUSE.
Produced by Matt Squire (Panic At The Disco, Boys Like Girls), "WANT" sees beatmaster Nathaniel Motte and MC Sean Foreman unleashing tongue-in-cheek rhymes and beats that incorporate '80s pop, electronica, and crunk hip-hop to deliver a knockout punch. The album has drawn critical acclaim, with further features appearing in Alternative Press and Rolling Stone.
3OH!3's MySpace page - located at www.myspace.com/3oh3 - has long been among the Top 10 MySpace bands since June 2008, coming in as the week's No 1 "Indie - Thrash" outfit, while also placing among the top 3 "Indie - Electronica" ranking. The duo's tracks have registered over 32.5 million streams thus far, with more than 50,000 plays per day.
Ranked among Alternative Press's "100 Bands You Need to Know in 2008," 3OH!3 spent their summer lighting it up nightly on the Vans Warped Tour. The duo's explosive live show - which has earned them opening slots for artists as diverse as The Faint, Snoop Dogg, and Bone Thugs-N-Harmony - was unquestionably among the traveling festival's biggest crowd-pleasers. 3OH!3 also made show-stopping appearances at such unique West Coast festivals as L.A.'s 2nd annual "Murder The Dancefloor" extravaganza and Icer Air 2008, a one-of-a-kind urban skiing competition/concert event held at the San Francisco Giants' AT&T Park.
