3 Minute Pop!, the Capital Regions best kept "pop secret,” plays sweet power pop, dripping with jangly guitar, driving beats and shimmering three-part harmonies. Not descriptive enough for you? Think Matthew Sweet, Goo Goo Dolls, Barenaked Ladies and Jimmy Eat World. Think Teenage Fanclub, Big Star and The Byrds. Think The Cure, Squeeze, The Pixies, INXS and Elvis Costello & The Attractions. Get The Knack? I mean…the point? "We don't write the songs, we just make them POP!" 3 Minute Pop! plays the coolest power pop, pounding out some of the purest power pop hits and deeper cuts from the `70s, `80s, `90s and today – songs that people know, but just don’t know the names of. We’re talking tunes like “A Million Miles Away” by The Plimsouls and “One More Time” by Joe Jackson – pure power pop that’s too good to get played on commercial radio and that too few bands play live – save for 3 Minute Pop! It’s fun to watch fans’ faces light up when 3 Minute Pop! kicks into The La’s “There She Goes” or Tal Bachman’s “She’s So High,” one-hit wonders that always get fans shouting, dancing and singing along.” 3 Minute Pop! lives up to its name. This band plays true power pop, catchy, classic pop earworms that stick in the brain for days. Don’t believe it? Come out to one of their shows and you’ll see. You’ll find yourself humming these songs sitting at your desk or out on the job a few days after the show. And remembering how much fun you had.
