“Combining trip-hop, grunge, industrial, drum & bass, and elements of electronic pop, (3 Dollar Hostage) is making some ominous music unlike anything else…†“SHOUT Magazine†September 2006 .
3 Dollar Hostage is based out of Chapel Hill and Raleigh in North Carolina and are creating a unique electro-grunge sound that is very innovative. The group met while attending ASU in Boone, NC. They immediately connected and started playing shows full of fast live electronica filled with improvisation and segues in and out of songs. Two years later they would change their style and incorporate rock, grunge, pop, and metal into their sound. Thus leading to a whole new outlook on music direction and a much needed move back to their hometowns of Chapel Hill and Raleigh. 3 Dollar Hostage has shared the stage with The Roots, Thievery Corporation, RJD2, Brazilian Girls, The Disco Biscuits, Benzos, Brothers Past, Indobox, and many more. Armed with an arsenal of electronic instruments, the boundaries of what a rock trio can sound like are constantly growing.
