History
3 Minute Hero was founded in 1996 in Moorhead, Minnesota, USA and "basically consists of band geeks who have been getting up at 7 in the morning for years to practice in various high school and college bands, and rockers who have spent years playing in basements and garages drinking warm beer." (Vol. 3 No. 16, April 10, 1997 The High Plains Reader, Fargo/Grand Forks ND)
Minnesota's 3 Minute Hero was a racous ska band that rocked the Twin Cities scene. They even enjoyed house band status at the Fine Line for a period.
Sadly, 3 Minute Hero disbanded for good in October of 2000. It was a wild, crazy, wonderful ride that lasted closer to 3 years than 3 minutes...and not nearly long enough.
Barking Dog Records released both of their CDs.
There is also a current metal band in Ohio called 3 Minute Hero.
