Too Late The Hero is an emo-rock/emocore band from Southern Maine, USA, or a punk band from Quezon City, Philippines.
Hailing from the depths of Southern Maine, Too Late The Hero started out as a simple side project for five friends in the summer of 2003. Realizing the potential they had, the five lads quit their positions in other bands in order to focus on this new project. In the spring of 2005, the band parted ways with guitarist Mike St. Hilaire and brought on ex-In The Arms Of Providence guitarist Nate Johnson.

Since their first show in February 2004, the band has just been picking up speed, playing numerous shows and tours across the New England and greater-Northeast region, and sharing the stage with many great artists. Drawing comparisons to bands such as Beloved, Brand New, and Thrice, the band combines pop-sensible choruses and infectious melodies with heartfelt breakdowns and group sing-a-longs. With a relentlessly energetic live show, chock full of flailing guitars, crowd sing-a-longs and the occasional injuries to band members, fans can be guaranteed that they will not be disappointed. With their independent release of a new 6-song EP entitled "The Arming" out now (available at Bullmoose Music and Newbury Comics locations, and online at Interpunk.com) and big plans for the rest of 2005 into the new year, the band has no intentions of stopping for anything.
Since their inception, the band has played on numerous tours and and festivals, with amazing bands such as: Panic! At The Disco, Anti-Flag, Dropping Daylight, Boysetsfire, People In Planes, Chiodos, Damone, Augustana, Name Taken, Bayside, As Tall As Lions, The Receiving End Of Sirens, Folly, Downtown Singapore, Outsmarting Simon and more. With a sound as influenced by The Police as Glassjaw, the end result is an intensity-laden mix of melodies, group vocals and breakdowns.
