MU330 are a ska/punk band formed in 1988 in Saint Louis. The original members met in Saint Louis University High School music class 330 (hence the name of the band).
MU330's lineup has changed frequently, but the foundations of the band remained intact--Potthast, Diebold, and Moll.
The band, maintaining with the general ska ethic of fun and optimism, MU330's music is very carefree, which is aided by ska's natural 'jumpy' sound, and of course, their very own description of the genre they inhabit, "psycho-ska." Their lively performances reflect this spirit.
Singer Dan Potthast has also released solo work.
