With a music career spanning 4 decades, Three Dog Night have certainly earned the right to be one of America's most iconic bands. With a vast back catalogue of smash hits like "Mama Told Me (Not To Come)", "Joy to the World", "Black and White", "Shambala" and "One" it would be easy for Three Dog Night to rest on this legacy, however, this band is not one for taking a break and are always looking for new ways to increase their audience.

Grammy-winning songwriter, producer and engineer Alan Parsons had a hand at creating some of classic rock's most memorable albums, from Abbey Road to Dark Side Of The Moon. But when he wasn't creating collaborative musical magic in the studio, the multi-talented muso was cultivating a cult following thanks to his solo endeavours, releasing twelve mind-bending progressive rock albums between 1974 and 2014.

After the death of Jerry Garcia in 1995, a deluge of Grateful Dead cover bands rose to pay tribute to their legacy. Considering their cult status amongst fans, its easy to see why such outfits flourish, but there aren't many that carry the stamp of approval from living members Phil Lesh and Bob Weir. Formed by Furthur drummer Joe Russo, Joe Russo's Almost Dead has a pedigree that marks it as a torchbearer of Garcia and co's legendary songbook.
