Biography
The Hoboken, New Jersey based band started in high school writing melancholic emo-punk tracks and playing any show they were offered, from the infamous underground Meatlocker to community fairs. Releasing five singles since forming in 2022, they did things the tried and true way of building a local following, before tracks like “The Last Thing I Remember” and “Like I Said I Would (Dylan’s Song)” started to gain national notice.
Now, 3 Dollars’ hard work and emotional sound have earned them a spot in the Smartpunk Records roster (Gully Boys, Keep Flying, Somerset Thrower), who released the band's debut EP, Plus Tax, on July 10th.

The five track EP balances adolescence and nostalgia, built through sharp melodies, hooky riffs, and raw emotion. Pulling influence from acts like Title Fight, The Replacements, and Anxious, 3 Dollars have created a post-emo punk sound that lends to the new generation of New Jersey bands.
