Pittsburgh’s 1,2,3 is one of the coolest new bands I’ve heard in a while. I’ve been listening to demos for months but I still don’t know what to call them/how to categorize them, other than “awesome”. I’m guessing they’ve listened to “Parklife” and watched Wattstax a few times. I could be totally wrong about that though. The band were in Philadelphia early this week recording 2 songs with Kyle “Slick” Johnson at Fancy Time.
On their blog, 1,2,3 describes one of the songs this way:
“In Philly as we speak, about to record our next single with Kyle “Slick” Johnson (fresh off the new Wavves album). It’s a Motown meets Misfits murder ballad from the point of view of a guy who drowns a little girl in the Allegheny river. Pretty excited.”
