BIOGRAPHY
Forged in the hard rock proving grounds of Minneapolis, MN in 2004, 3 Pill Morning could be described as trial by fire. Simply put, music was never a question for lead vocalist Jeff Stebbins and failure was never an option. While other musicians were moving from project to project and band to band, Stebbins took a different path, consistently growing and evolving 3 Pill Morning into an anthemic rock band no one could deny.
It took the better part of 5 years, over 500 shows in basement bars and the constant ups and downs of any young unsigned band. But nothing would stop the evolution of 3 Pill Morning. The band forged on, hitting the road harder than ever before, solidifying their sound, and cementing their spot as a national touring act sharing the stage with the likes of Hollywood Undead, Sevendust, In This Moment and Theory of a Deadman. Through 3 Pill Morning’s consistent mile grinding and road warrior focus, the band has built an inspiring fan base with die hard supporters worldwide.
After a chance introduction in a city better known for honky-tonks and banjos than gut-wrenching riffs, the band found a creative match with Nashville based producer Jon King (Augustana, Throwing Gravity, Future Leaders of the World) . They quickly went to work writing, recording, and re-vamping songs and ideas to take that next sonic step. In 2012 the band signed a recording contract with King’s Page 2 Music and New York based A2Z Entertainment. “We were really intentional with everything this time around,” comments Stebbins, “as a band we had a specific vision for what we wanted to do and that really set the tone for everything from the writing process down to the artwork and suits we wear live."
Two months of all-night recording sessions later, the band emerged from the studio with a renewed vigor and a slick concoction of fist pumping riffs, infectious melodies and an energy that can only be described as relentless. 3 Pill Morning’s label debut 'Black Tie Love Affair' pegs all the dials and pulls no punches. The band’s lead single ‘Rain’ immediately raced into the top 100 Active Rock songs, the album hit #62 on the Billboard Heat Seekers chart and their sleek video capturing the underdog story ‘Skin’ has lit up YouTube. All signs are positive that this band’s determination and fan-centric demeanor will keep them on the radar for years to come.

Cauterizing the skin, the fire within
Waiting for the end of a lonely night
Pray for the sun, get ready to run
Bracing for the enemy to reappear
We stand together and we will never surrender
I cover my eyes
Because I know what's behind
The curtain
cnd it's killing everything in sight
We had a bond
But didn't make it too long
They're coming
cnd they're killing everything in sight
Let the battle begin, believe we can win
Fighting to the end of this lonely night
Machines with the guns, the damage they've done
We stand together and we'll never surrender
I cover my eyes
Because I know what's behind
The curtain
cnd it's killing everything in sight
We had a bond but didn't make it too long
They're coming
cnd they're killing everything in sight
Don't leave me
In this lonely world alone
Don't leave me
Scratching and scraping for crumbs
Don't leave me
In this lonely world alone
Don't leave me
Scratching and scraping for crumbs
Don't leave me
In this lonely world alone
Don't leave me
Scratching and scraping
I cover my eyes
Because I know what's behind
The curtain
cnd it's killing everything in sight
We had a bond
But didn't make it too long
They're coming
cnd they're killing everything in sight
I cover my eyes
Because I know what's behind
They're killing everything in sight
We had a bond
But didn't make it too long
They're killing everything in sight
The lyrics to 3 Pill Morning's song "Crumbs" depict a sense of desperation and fear in the face of an impending threat. In the first verse, the singer is described as cauterizing their skin, which can be seen as a metaphor for toughening oneself up emotionally and mentally. They are waiting for the end of a lonely night, hoping for the arrival of dawn and a fresh start. The reference to praying and bracing for the reappearance of an enemy suggests that they have faced this danger before and are preparing themselves for a battle.
The chorus emphasizes the unity and resilience of the singer and their allies. They stand together and vow to never surrender, suggesting a strong sense of camaraderie and determination to fight against their adversary. The line "I cover my eyes because I know what's behind the curtain" implies that the singer is aware of the true nature of the threat they face, and it is killing everything in its path. This could refer to a literal enemy or a metaphorical representation of a destructive force.
In the second verse, the battle is about to commence, and the singer believes in their ability to win. However, the mention of "machines with guns" and the damage they have already caused highlights the scale of destruction and the grim reality of the situation. Despite this, the singer stands firm in their resolve to fight until the end of the night.
The final repetition of the chorus intensifies the plea from the singer to not be abandoned in this lonely world. The metaphor of scratching and scraping for crumbs suggests that they are struggling to survive and maintain their humanity amidst the chaos. The repetition of the line "I cover my eyes because I know what's behind" reinforces the sense of dread and awareness of the devastating consequences that await.
