Born from elements of a musical family tree that spans many styles and many miles, THREE TO ONE began rehearsals in the Winter of 2010 with the idea of picking up a few gigs around the Midwest, maybe some clubs, maybe some black-tie jazz gigs, whatever.

Then something special happened.
It was a sound; hard to describe, but easy to dig. A sound that can change as quick as a cat, yet somehow remain very special and identifiable.

2011 came and went, and with it the dozens of gigs that helped to forge the core of the band’s sound, sending THREE TO ONE into 2012 with momentum, direction, and invaluable stage time doing everything from backing up solo artists and vocal groups to instrumental jazz for black tie events to full-blown rock festival shows.

A commitment to let the band develop organically has produced great results so far. THREE TO ONE often collaborates with local and regional artists for special shows, all the while building a maintaining an impressive list of venues, clients, and accomplishments. Equally at home doing acoustic shows at local wineries, hot sets at clubs and festivals, or intimate house concerts, THREE TO ONE want to extend an open invitation to everyone – young or old, no matter what music you love, rich or poor, dog or cat; to join us on the journey.
Praise for 3:1

The Captain Midnight Band is the world’s only known purveyor of “Waterbed Rock & Roll”.

Crunchy Rock Guitar Riffs, Thick R&B Grooves, and Soaring Vocal Harmonies combine to create a unique soundscape for jammy anthems, sci-fi imagery, and humorous situations.

The group’s diverse appeal has resulted in club, theater, and festival dates with such acts as Dark Star Orchestra, String Cheese Incident, moe, Goose, Twiddle, Spafford, Billy Strings, Karl Denson, TAUK, and too many other weirdos to list.

Flattering comparisons to genre-defying acts such as P-Funk, Frank Zappa, and Ween are evident in the live show, where a genuine, energetic exchange occurs between band, fans, and whoever is lucky enough to be in the vicinity.

The catchy songs and sexy, slick production of the band’s four studio albums have certainly raised a few earbrows, but any fan will tell you that the live show is where the butter is stored.

The band’s freshly-released live album, “LEISURE MGMT. LIVE”, recorded in Asheville, NC captures the energy exchange of the band and its fans in a raucous, party environment. All previous releases are all available on itunes, Apple music, YouTube, Amazon, and Spotify.

Formed in New Orleans and based in Nashville, the band pays homage to both cities, straddling the line between polished and greasy, slick and slippery, with an unrelenting commitment to dazzling the earholes and eyeballs of everyone in attendance.
