This will be Three Dog Night’s first full performance in Youngstown in over a decade. The band’s members have changed throughout the years, but founding members Cory Wells and Danny Hutton have remained constants. Original guitarist Michael Allsup, Paul Kingery (bass & vocals), and Pat Bautz (drums) complete the group.
Three Dog Night recorded music by “undiscovered” writers at the time including Harry Nilsson, Randy Newman, Elton John, Laura Nyro, Paul Williams, and Hoyt Axton. Three Dog Night recently recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra at the famous Abbey Road studios in London. This pairing coincided with the groups 35th Anniversary. They have added new songs to their repertoire by releasing their first double-A sided single in almost 25 years.
After a brief hiatus in the late 1970s, a reunion in the early 80s kept them touring internationally. Since 1986, they have performed over 2,200 shows including two Super Bowls. Their touring schedule includes over 70 dates per year.
Tickets for this concert are available to the public on Friday, August 7th at 10AM. For more information or for tickets, visit stambaughauditorium.com or call the Stambaugh Auditorium Box Office at 330-259-0555.
