DEADWOOD, SD – (07/15/24) – Legendary band Three Dog Night, now in its sixth decade, continues to claim some of the most astonishing statistics in popular music. From 1969 to 1974, no other group achieved more top 10 hits, moved more records, or sold more concert tickets than Three Dog Night.
Their timeless hits, including “Mama Told Me (Not To Come)”, “Joy to the World”, “Black and White”, “Shambala”, and “One”, are woven into the fabric of pop culture today. These songs are frequently heard on the radio, featured in TV commercials, and showcased in major motion pictures, demonstrating Three Dog Night’s enduring popularity.
Boasting chart and sales records that remain virtually unmatched, Three Dog Night holds a Billboard Magazine record for releasing 21 consecutive Top 40 hits, including three #1 singles: “Mama Told Me (Not to Come)”, “Joy to the World”, and “Liar”. This success led to seven Platinum-selling singles and twelve consecutive RIAA Certified Gold LPs. Their music has topped charts across various genres, and their records continue to sell worldwide, reaching audiences in Japan, Canada, Holland, England, Germany, Spain, and beyond.
Created in 1968 by Danny Hutton, Three Dog Night maintains an aggressive year-round touring schedule, performing over 90 dates annually for multi-generational audiences. The band’s name refers to native Australian hunters who huddled with their dogs for warmth on cold nights; the coldest being a “three dog night.”
Three Dog Night’s unique ability to recognize and record hits from largely undiscovered new songwriters, such as Harry Nilsson, Randy Newman, Elton John, Laura Nyro, Paul Williams, and Hoyt Axton, allowed them to dominate the charts for years. Their eclectic taste and distinctive style have kept their music relevant and beloved by both new and longtime fans.
The band continues to demonstrate its eclectic song choices with new material for an upcoming album release. One of the new tracks, “Prayer of the Children,” features an a cappella arrangement created by Hutton, highlighting the vocals of all six band members for the first time. This song is quickly becoming a fan favorite in their live concert set.
Marking over 50 years on the road, Three Dog Night continues to grow its fan base with a full schedule of concerts at theatres, performing arts centers, fairs, festivals, corporate events, and casinos. Since 1986, the band has performed nearly 3,000 shows, including appearances at two Super Bowls.
