3RD CULTURE blends the melodic ambitions and lush textures of Britpop with the soul of American Rock n' Roll. The result is a dynamic, youthful, and refreshing pop/rock sound. 3RD CULTURE is a global collision spanning 3 continents, each member bringing a decade's worth of experience performing and recording tracks featured internationally on radio and television. "Sunrise for the Dislocated," the band's debut EP, brings to mind the classics of The Cars and the emotionally poignant sounds of contemporaries like Keane and Remy Zero. 3RD CULTURE radiates the signals of a bright future, in the legacy of U2 and Tom Petty.
"3rd Culture may span the globe but at heart they are a true American rock band with Top 40 sensibility and a non-pretentious demeanor. The EP highlights their 80's vibe with a modern edge. Standout tracks include "Radio" and a cover of The Psychedelic Furs' "Heaven". An energizing set likely to please the college crowd and young-at-heart alike. Perfect soundtrack material."
(DOM LECONTE, Sony Networks)
"3RD CULTURE successfully follows the formula institutionalized by U2. The music is raw, the energy is high, and the choruses are anthemic. This is what radio should play - rock with a hook AND a melody. "Heartbreak City" screams "Gossip Girl" and that's a good thing."
(MICHAEL SLEZAK, Entertainment Weekly)
"It's the "Empire Records" soundtrack for today."
(JAMES MASTERSON, Dotmusic)
"Multi-format hits waiting to happen in Heartbreak City, Radio and Heaven. Great vocals, great production, great sound - what else do you need?"
(RYAN T. FREDERICK, VH-1 International)
"I love the vibe. Lasting rock sound with a timely pull. Tracks that sound as good on record as they do live."
(MICHELLE BOSTON, NBC Universal TV
