Three Dog Night

Relive the Golden Era: Three Dog Night Takes the Stage at The Wellmont Theatre!

Prepare for an evening of timeless classics as the legendary Three Dog Night brings their iconic sound to Montclair’s Wellmont Theatre on Sunday, July 27, 2025. Doors open at 7:00 PM, with the show beginning at 8:00 PM, promising a journey through some of pop music’s most enduring hits. This is a rare chance to experience a band that truly dominated the airwaves for nearly five decades!

Three Dog Night holds an astonishing place in popular music history. Between 1969 and 1974, no other group achieved more Top 10 hits, sold more records, or moved more concert tickets. Their incredible run included 21 consecutive Top 40 hits, with three #1 singles, eleven Top 10s, eighteen straight Top 20s, and seven million-selling singles. Their impact was undeniable, and their songs remain woven into the fabric of pop culture, heard daily on the radio, in commercials, and in major motion pictures. Tracks like “Mama Told Me (Not To Come),” “Joy to the World,” “Black and White,” “Shambala,” and “One” continue to resonate, evoking emotions and solidifying the band’s lasting popularity.

This Grammy-nominated powerhouse isn’t content to simply rest on their impressive legacy. Three Dog Night continues to expand their audience, embracing 21st-century music technology and consistently selling millions of copies of their releases. They’ve even ventured into new territory, releasing a double-A sided single featuring the powerful “Heart Of Blues” and the beautiful a-cappella ballad “Prayer of the Children.” In a testament to their enduring creativity, they also collaborated with the London Symphony Orchestra, recording at the famous Abbey Road Studios to add exciting new orchestral arrangements to their signature sound.

Maintaining an aggressive, year-round touring schedule of over 70 dates, Three Dog Night continues to perform for generation-spanning audiences. The current lineup, featuring founder/lead vocalist Danny Hutton, Michael Allsup (guitar), Paul Kingery (bass/vocals), Pat Bautz (drums), Howard Laravea (keyboards), and David Morgan (vocals), ensures that the band’s legendary energy and sound remain vibrant. The band’s unique name, referring to Australian hunters huddling with dogs for warmth on cold nights, perfectly encapsulates their resilience and enduring appeal.

Three Dog Night’s success was also built on their remarkable ability to discover and record the music of the era’s best (and often undiscovered) new songwriters, including Harry Nilsson, Randy Newman, Elton John, Laura Nyro, Paul Williams, and Hoyt Axton, among many others. Their eclectic taste, combined with their distinctive and appealing style, allowed them to dominate the charts for years.

With nearly five decades on the road and over 2,200 shows under their belt, including two Super Bowls, Three Dog Night continues to grow their devoted fan base. Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to see these true music legends deliver a hit-filled concert at The Wellmont Theatre!
