3-Pipe Problem formed in El Paso, Texas, with Greg Gonzalez on vocals and guitar, Randy Miller on bass, and Will Post on drums. Their early recordings included what would become their most recognizable song, "Cigarettes After Sex." That track appeared on their 2012 EP and later anchored their 2017 debut album of the same name.
Their sound is sparse and intimate, built around Gonzalez's hypnotic vocals and minimal instrumentation. They followed their debut with the albums "Flower Moon" in 2019 and "Is It Tomorrow Yet?" in 2022. Other songs in their catalog include "Alive," "Answers," and "Silver Girl."
Gonzalez has been open about his mental health struggles, which adds a layer of vulnerability to their work. The band's measured pace between releases has sometimes drawn comment from listeners waiting for new material.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
