Garage A Trois is a band founded by drummer Stanton Moore, eight-string guitarist Charlie Hunter, and saxophonist Skerik.

The band spontaneously formed in during the 1998 recording of Stanton Moore's debut "All Kooked Out!", a session that also yielded Garage A Trois' debut recording "Mysteryfunk" (both recorded and produced by Dan Prothero for Fog City Records). Despite sounding tonally and stylistically similar to heavily edited, sample-based club music, "Mysteryfunk" was recorded entirely live with no overdubs.

As implied by the name, Garage A Trois was initially a trio but after success as a live act they took on vibraphonist and percussionist Mike Dillon.
