Third Class formed in East Palestine, Ohio, 1999, with brothers, Lee and Jack Boyle, along with best friend, Pepe Parish. The band often uses a two-string guitar, uniquely-tuned bass, and cheap keyboard, paired with loosely-pitched vocals and sloppy percussion. Many of their songs focus on childhood and travel, with later years leaning toward sci-fi, religion, mental health, and love. Steve Boyle, the youngest brother, is sometimes involved in writing and recording, along with various friends. The band has toured throughout the United States of America, releasing multiple singles and albums of all-original material, with various availability on vinyl, cassette, compact disc, and digital. They currently reside in Youngstown, Ohio and Taunton, Massachusetts.
