Formed in Mid Wales in the summer of 2002 from a shared love of all things punk & ska, 3 Minute Warning boast a 4 piece line up of Billy (guitar & vocals), Chuzz (keys & vocals), Harold (drums) & Matt (bass)
Soon after their formation they quickly established themselves throughout the UK with their blistering live shows. With influences ranging from The Specials & Madness through to The Clash, Rancid & The Bouncing Souls, 3 Minute Warning's sound is centred on storming streetpunk ska with great shoutalong choruses & catchy keyboard melodies.
After self releasing a debut CD EP, titled "Eating Ain't Cheating", the band then had their track "Faithless" included on a punk compilation released by Complete Control Music in 2004.
Soon the band caught the ear of Do The Dog Music & signed to the label in late 2005.
3 Minute Warning's debut full length album, titled "Tramps Jackpot", was released in April 2006. The CD picked up excellent reviews from the International ska & punk press & lots of radio airplay, including several spins on Radio 1's flagship punk rock show, The Lock Up.
Since the release of "Tramps Jackpot" 3 Minute Warning have gigged extensively all across the UK & also further afield in Europe.
