About Me

RIP three letter word Aug 2004 - Oct 2007 ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------three letter word was a dynamic independent 3-piece band from Melbourne. Lyrically covering real life topics like image, poverty, acceptance, love and equality, three letter word’s music was passionate, confronting and honest, with a few twists of sarcasm thrown in.They burst onto the original music scene in 2005 with the launch of their first self-titled EP at the Northcote Social Club. They played regular gigs in Melbourne (some favourite venues being The Espy, Hi-Fi Bar, and Ruby’s Lounge) and country Victoria, and have also travelled interstate to South Australia & Tasmania. The band made several television appearances on SBS and Channel 31 through “NoiseTV”, and had community radio exposure.three letter word released their second EP, titled ‘Therapy’, in 2006 – with Peter “Reggie” Bowman (ex-Southern Sons) as recording engineer/co-producer. The title track, ‘Therapy’, was chosen to be on the 2006 AIRplay Rock sampler/compilation CD, and the film clip for this song has been broadcast on RAGE (ABC), NoiseTV and is also being watched on YouTube.Hailing from country Victoria, the band’s influences were many and varied, including: Powderfinger, Alanis Morissette, U2, Midnight Oil, Carole King, Pink, Queen, Live, Foo Fighters, Evanescence, Jeff Buckley and Radiohead.three letter word's songs were a dynamic and varied blend of “sometimes heavy, sometimes soft - but always melodic” rock and power-pop. Their live show was very well regarded amongst audiences and fellow musicians alike.If you'd like to buy three letter word music or merch (YES IT IS STILL AVAILABLE), message here. * Mel & Louise can now be seen in their new band - Gold Star Republic - www.myspace.com/goldstarrepublic MyGen Profile Generator
