If you're into high quality rock with roots and soul this is for you... I'm struggling to find someone who doesn't appreciate a little sex. What? Sex? Just listen. 1,2,3 - Work Yes, they are called 1,2,3. Srsly HYPED by John
1,2,3 has announced a set of new spring tour dates that will have them going from New York all the way to Alabama. Tonight, the band plays at Brooklyn Bowl with We Are Scientists. Be sure to head over there tonight (we'll be there) and kick in a few bucks to help the band buy a new touring van here 04/25 - Brooklyn Bowl - Brooklyn, NY w/ We Are Scientists 05/07 - Bug Jar - Rochester, NY 05/09 - ...
Pittsburgh power-pop kings on the rise 1,2,3 need your help. The dudes recently put together a Kickstarter campaign to raise the funds to get a new touring van: theirs has been breaking down enough to cause them to miss shows on the regular. It's a good cause – not only is touring the best way for most artists to make a living these days, you definitely want to check out 1,2,3's live show whenever you can – with cool rewards for donating, but if you're short on cash you can just check [...]
SKOA favorites 1,2,3 need your help! As of recently, the band has been unable to make it out to shows because their van has been breaking down on them pretty consistently. Like most bands on the up and up, while they have the ability to melt your face off live, they lack the funds to replace their craptastic van. This is where us fans come in. The band has taken to Kickstarter to raise the $10,000 needed for a new van. Supporters can receive anywhere from t-shirts or limited edition 7"s for their donations up to [...]
You may know that we're big fans of 1,2,3 around these parts; we've hung out with them, we've listened to their music an unhealthy amount of times, we saw them live at SXSW more than any other act, they're cool fucking dudes, and their debut album "New Heaven" was voted as our Number One album of 2011 , but the guys have missed more than enough shows because of their van constantly breaking down on them. So they've started a Kickstarter [...]
The Pittsburgh outfit pens lullabies for grown-ups that feature laconic vocals and occasional xylophone, creating a zen, dreamy soundscape.

![[SXSW] – 1,2,3](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4158057_lg.jpg)
My first experience of SXSW was an interesting one, with its high points and low points, though I imagine everyone's is. One band we've written about in large quantities is Pittsburgh's 1,2,3 and having never seen them live before I knew that it would have to happen at SXSW , I just didn't know that I'd end up seeing them three times in three days in three completely different settings. First up was their night show at The Stage On Sixth , a wide and spacious bar located [...]

![[News] 1,2,3 Announce U.S. Tour Dates](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4049553_lg.jpg)
Underrated Pittsburgh rocker duo 1,2,3 have had an excellent year, having released their debut LP New Heaven last year and releasing the free EP Dreamland, Pt. 1 last month. Despite their fantastic releases, the pair haven't recevied as much attention as they deserve. But, with the announcement of a headlining U.S. tour, the Steel City rockers hope to change that. Starting on February 25th, the band will perform in 22 cities, including a performance at this year's SXSW. Take a look at all of their tour dates [...]
Wednesday, February 8, 2012 1,2,3 SXSW tends to be a little nicer to the acts that work hard, and this one certain does. Over the last year they've put out a full length and a single, and then they started 2012 with a free EP and word that they had landed the opening slot on the upcoming Yellow Ostrich tour. SXSW will be nothing for them! Ok, not really, but I do think they're going to make an impact. [...]
It seems that 1, 2, 3 will never stop touring. The band just completed a batch of shows in December, and now it looks like they'll be heading back on the road already in March. It's no wonder these tireless road warriors caught the attention of Frenchkiss Records. The list of their latest round of touring is posted below. 1,2,3 tour dates: 3.03 - Boston MA - Great Scott 3.04 - Buffalo, NY - Mohawk Place 3.06 - Cleveland OH - Beachland Tavern [...]
Chicago – It's always a great surprise when you unexpectedly know the opening band at a concert, which is why I was so excited when it turned out that 1,2,3 was the first opener for the Grouplove concert at Lincoln Hall Saturday night! The trio had a strong onstage presence (and the lead singer had some fantastic dimples) and they started things off right with their song Work , one of the band's more popular tunes, which includes the totally relatable lyrics, "Gold card, platinum card, plastic card too/I don't really give a damn about [...]
Pittsburgh indie duo 1,2,3 have released a new EP Dreamland Pt. 1 that may be more to your kids' liking than your own. 1,2,3's Nic Snyder recorded the new EP for his baby niece and wasn't thinking that he would release it for his fans. However, now the album is available to download, but Snyder recommends to not listen to the second-half or you may fall asleep. Read more »

Tweet Listen to "Flower Drum Song" below, the new song by The Mhurs . We were instantly wowed when The Mhurs showed up on our radar last May, courtesy of 1,2,3 's Joshua Sickels (Sickles? Sikuls? Sukels?....I give up). Their debut album "In Another Tongue" was one that we spent some time with last year, appearing on a couple [...]
2011 was a busy and successful year for Pittsburgh duo 1,2,3 . In June the band released their debut LP, "New Heaven", which has now been featured on a number of year end lists. As a follow up to this record, they released the "Scared, but not that Scared" single, which featured two brand new tracks. Not wasting any time, the band are starting 2012 off with a bang (albeit an oh so subtle bang), by offering a dreamy, slumberesque...
