FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MARCH 29, 2010 BOULEVARD CASINO PRESENTS THREE DOG NIGHT LIVE AT THE RED ROBINSON SHOW THEATRE FRIDAY, JUNE 4 Coquitlam, BC – From 1969 to 1974, no other group had more Top Ten hits, moved more records or sold more concert tickets than Three Dog Night. Their hits wind through the fabric of pop culture today whether on the radio where they are heard day in and day out, in television commercials or in major motion pictures … songs such as “Mama Told Me (Not To Come),” “Joy to The World,” “Black and White,” “Shambala,” “One,” “Liar” and “Celebrate” serve to heighten our emotions and crystallize their continuing popularity. Initially brought together in 1968 by Danny Hutton and Cory Wells, the group was enormously successful from the start. Hutton, who had graduated from loading and unloading records at the Disney studio to recording as a solo artist, met Wells while he was touring with Sonny and Cher. The now-famous name came from a story about Australian aborigines who, on cold nights in the outback, sleep with their dogs for warmth … the coldest evenings are known as “three dog nights.” Last October, the band began adding new songs to their arsenal by releasing “Heart of Blues”/”Prayer of the Children” … their first double-A sided single in nearly twenty-five years. They maintain an aggressive schedule of more than 80 dates a year and have performed at over 2000 shows including two Super Bowls. Their well- loved hits … delivered in their unmistakable style … are performed for audiences spanning generations by founding members Hutton and Wells on lead vocals along with original keyboardist Jimmy Greenspoon and guitarist Michael Allsup. Paul Kingery (bass and vocals) and Pat Bautz (drums) complete the line-up. Three Dog Night will be performing for one night only at Boulevard Casino’s Red Robinson Show Theatre in June.
