Alabama 3 é uma banda britânica formada em Brixton, Londres, em 1996. Nos EUA são mais conhecidos como "A3" para evitar algum conflito legal com a banda country Alabama. A banda alcançou fama internacional quando os produtores da série "The Sopranos" escolheram sua música "Woke Up This Morning" para os créditos iniciais da série.
A banda é notável principalmente pela sua fusão de estilos e letras repletas de ironia. suas "personas" deliberadamente humoradas e suas ultrajantas performances ao vivo.
