Hart formed Hüsker Dü in 1979 with Bob Mould and his friend Greg Norton. The band’s early material had them lumped in with the hardcore movement of the early 1980s. The band members received help from their parents in their early days. In Hart’s case, his mother let him use the copier machine at the credit union where she worked to make show flyers, and the band added $2,000 to an existing loan at the credit union to release the band’s first single, “Statues,” on their own label Reflex Records in 1981. Success existed on a small scale for the band; by 1982 Hart was unemployed and relied on support from friends and family.

Hüsker Dü’s music became more accomplished and melodic over time. By late 1982, Hart’s drumming “rushed the music along more precisely than ever” and he and Mould, who traded vocal duties, were singing more tunefully. While Mould was the band’s primary songwriter, Hart began writing more songs. Hart wrote two songs for 1983’s Metal Circus EP, the “perversely sing-along” “Diane” and the “impassioned speed-pop gem” “It’s Not Funny Anymore.” Hüsker Dü’s more melodic take on hardcore struck a chord with college students, and various tracks from Metal Circus, particularly Hart’s “Diane,” were put into rotation by dozens of campus radio stations across the US. Hart was tagged by observers as the “hippie” of the group due to his long hair and his propensity to drum with bare feet; biographer Michael Azerrad additionally noted that “the wide- eyed sincerity of his songs was far more San Francisco ’67 than New York City ’77,” which contrasted with Mould’s “incisively bitter” songs.

He was the son of an employee of a credit union and shop teacher. His elder brother passed away due to an intoxicated driver.
