CHECK OUT FEATURED CLIENT, 3 PILL MORNING…

About the band:
Relentless… do everything you can and then do one thing more. Without this mentality it is difficult to distinguish one individual and those that stand out from the rest. 3 Pill Morning’s relentless desire to create their own space is the cornerstone to their story. Formed in 2003, the band began creating music built on a foundation of rhythms to keep you moving, laced with melodies that are seemingly unforgettable…feel and connect. Their music has been featured on several MTV television shows, spun on 300+ nationwide college and FM Radio stations, the band has reigned victorious in multiple Battle of the Bands contests and has watched a loyal and rapidly growing fanbase attend their high energy shows. The band has shared the stage with national acts including Buckcherry, RED, Trapt, Taproot, Rehab, Default, Nonpoint, Evans Blue, Framing Hanley, hed(PE), Trust Company, Skindred and many more.
