3 Feet Smaller is an Austrian punk rock band formed in 2000.[1]

Their first big concert was at the 2 Days a Week festival in Wiesen in 2001. The first single of their debut album was in the Austrian alternative charts for many weeks.[2] Their second single topped the charts in East Switzerland.

Over the years they have played many concerts in Austria and other European countries.[3] They also played as support for other bands like The Offspring and Die Ärzte. They released five albums, a Christmas CD, and an EP. The band also appeared on the soundtrack of the movie Dead in 3 Days and the skiing video game Freak Out: Extreme Freeride.

After the end of "3 Feet Smaller'", three former members of the band later reformed under the title "Lian" and released a self-titled new album in June 2016.[4] Lead vocalist Marcus Smaller has pursued a solo career with two albums.[5]
