Three Beards

Three Beards are a Texas alternative rock band formed by Hank Barbe, a combat vet featured in a TIME Magazine article for a lifesaving mission in Iraq in 2003 titled "Anatomy of a Medivac". Hank started playing music after the hardships of war, and it helped with his PTSD, as well as created a new career where he could channel his energy and message. Not even a year after starting, they were signed to CBM Records, he met Ian Dehle and they quickly formulated a new sound with producer and drummer Mike Froedge (Double Drive, Black Label Society) and bass player William "Billy" Bosler. The band's sound is rock meets Blues Traveler, meets Dave Matthews and the sophomore release "Lessons Learned" has gained attention from fans, movie producers and other bands, covering the inner thoughts of a soldier struggling with PTSD and suicide. The band are putting out new music monthly as well as a new full length soon and playing constantly. They can be hired as a 2 piece for $300 or a full band for $600.
