3rd Avenue is a Filipino band composed of Paolo Ledesma (lead vocals), Abbey Pineda (lead vocals), Jeff Perez (keyboards), Beng Gatmaitan (drums), Adonis Tabanda (bass guitar) and Lester Cerda (Saxophone and Flute).

This band started as an acoustic group of three members in 2000. The original members started performing at restaurants, bars and weddings. Although each one of them had different career backgrounds, they were bound together by their passion and enthusiasm for music.

The group embraced this bond and eventually added members to evolve into a 6-piece group. They released their first album, 3rd Avenue - In Time which was produced by Barnyard Music and distributed by Universal Records in 2007; and became the most sought after group in the Philippine wedding industry. Because of this, they are dubbed as "The Country's Premier Wedding Band".
