3 is the third studio album by American hard rock band FireHouse. It was released in 1995 on Epic Records. It featured a softer sound than their previous two albums, although unlike many glam metal bands at that time, Firehouse did not change its sound despite the domination of grunge rock and alternative rock in the mainstream music industry by the time of the album's release.

Despite the album not selling as well as previous releases, it spawned the hit signature power ballad in "I Live My Life for You", reaching 26th on the Billboard Top 100. The album was placed 66th in the Billboard Top 200 and was certified gold in other countries.

The band toured extensively in Asia, Argentina, Brazil and in smaller venues in the United States to support the album.
