Merging intensity with melody, 3 Years Hollow plans to spread their rabid Quad
Cities fanbase throughout the rest of the US and beyond, with an upcoming tour
(alongside Saving Abel - with additional dates to be added), and their upcoming
release, 'The Cracks,' which drops on February 11, 2014. The twelve-track
release will be the group's full-length debut for Imagen Records, and was
produced by none other than Sevendust guitarist/songwriter Clint Lowery (Lowery
also guests on a track, "For Life").
"We want to play melodic hard rock," explains singer Jose Urquiza. "That's the
music that brought us together. At the same time, we all have drastically
different influences from progressive rock to hair metal to pop punk."
Comprised of Urquiza, Tony Reeves (guitar), Neil Kuhlman (guitar), Dex Digga
(bass), and Chris Cushman (drums), 3 Years Hollow has already enjoyed success on
such stations as Sirius XM Octane, which added the song, "Remember" (of which a
remastered version resides on 'The Cracks') to their rotation. Soon after, the
song hit #1 on the channel, while all of the group's videos have attracted
nearly 500,000 YouTube views.
Also included is the aforementioned "For Life," of which Urquiza describes as
"It's about a person who is struggling and has fallen away from the world alone.
You can see the damage and the demons the person deals with on a daily basis.
However, all of a sudden, there is hope instead of despair. The final message is
to pull away from the demons, stand strong against them, and keep them out for
the rest of your life. It was such an honor to bring that track to life with
Clint."
Instead of setting up shop at a single recording studio, it turns out that the
sessions for 'The Cracks' occurred at several different studios, including
Groovemaster Studios (where Disturbed, Sevendust, and Pop Evil have all
recorded) in Chicago, IL, Trailer Studios in St. Louis, MO, and the band's own
studio, Real Trax Recording, in Davenport, IA.According to Urquiza, it is also
the realness of his lyrics that resonate greatly with fans. "Everything I write
about is a completely personal experience or something I've witnessed or
experienced myself. I talk about things I've seen or experienced. I want to give
everybody something real."
