Three Man Down
Three Man Down is a Thai pop band from Bangkok, Thailand.
History
Three Man Down was started by Krit Jirapattananuwong (Kit), who was attending university and wanted to form a band, so he invited his friends to join. Until he met Peerapol Iamjamrat (Toon) and Kittimet Chanpanich (Ohm). First, their band was a rock style. The name Three Man Down comes from the members, who used to have three bands in high school and then disbanded when they went to college. Three Man Down is like three that had fallen.[3]
In the beginning, this band started with a contest. The first contest was the 5 GUM event, a collaboration between A day Magazine and Believe Records, held at Siam Discovery.
Turning point
They entered many other contests until a turning point when they competed at the Melody of Life event and were inspired to turn into a band that released their own songs. Toon, one of the members, said that because other bands have their songs, even though we have competed in many stages, we still don't have our own style. After that music contest, they decided to stop competing and start looking for a unique style, and create their own music.
The first song was called Kum Tum Nai. This song became another important turning point for the band because they still couldn't find their style, but after that the band had Sung Mattnimare, who became a music producer and helped the band discover their musical identity. Initially, they were under the Malama Collective or Microwave and released the song 'Kang Kun' which received a good response.
Sign with Gene Lab
This made them want to step into the bigger music market. 'Ohm Cocktail', co-founder of Gene Lab, found the music band to audition with Gene Lab. And Three Man Down didn't let this opportunity slip away. They showed their agility until they made it to the last 6 out of 307 groups, and were finally accepted and signed by Gene Lab.
Musical style and influences
[4] Most of the Three Man Down members studied film, so they think like musicians to some extent. When making music, they think from the picture first and then add the music and details later. They write songs based on the concept. Tae, a member of the band, said this band uses a director system to think and produce works, sharing who has a strong point and taking care of that. So their work is like making movies.
In the beginning, Three Man Down still couldn't find their style. Therefore, each person's style was mixed in their songs until they met Sung Mattnimare, who was a major turning point in their music style. He gave more direction to the band and helped them become Three Man Down in pop rock style today.[5]
