Artist History JOEL ODOM AND MIKE PEARSON formed Atom3 in 1998. After touring with a former gutiar player for 2 years,they merged with Don Mclure and Eric Testerman in August of 2000. This lineup brought the band's overall sound and professionalism to an explosive new level. Between all members they have opened for 22 national acts ( including MOLLY HATCHET, LA GUNS, WARRANT, XYZ, AND SIAGON KICKS ) and have performed in venues all over the East Coast. Atom-3's latest CD "ENERGY" was released in 2000 and was produced and recorded at LB Tracks Studio in Hickory N.C. by Steve Brown at HiWay Records. Energy is their maiden voyage in CD burning achievement. They hope you enjoy hearing it as much as they did making it. There is a lot of great music to come on their next CD scheduled for release in 2003.....
