Hard rock is back at Montage Music Hall this fall, and this one belongs on your calendar. 3 Years Hollow — a quintet out of the Quad Cities, that cluster of cities straddling the Iowa-Illinois border along the Mississippi River — rolls through Rochester on Thursday, September 3, and they bring a real touring pedigree with them.
The band has been at this since 2006. Their 2014 album The Cracks, produced by Clint Lowery of Sevendust, hit #23 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers chart. “Remember” went to #1 on Sirius XM Octane, and the album generated two Top 40 singles on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart. They have shared stages with Papa Roach, Buckcherry, Nonpoint, and Sevendust, and pulled a slot on the 2014 Rockstar Uproar Festival alongside Godsmack and Seether. Not a bad résumé for a band still grinding it out on the club circuit — and still doing it entirely on their own terms.
Earlier this year they put out “Grudge,” a new single recorded, mixed, and mastered by frontman Jose Urquiza at The Attic Recording studio in Geneseo, IL. Fresh material means this is not just a nostalgia run. There is new energy behind it.
Trackside opens the night. Doors at 6 PM. This is a 16+ show in a 400-cap room, so it is going to feel close in the best way.
Tickets are available through Etix. Check the full Rochester / Finger Lakes calendar for more this fall.
