Peter,
Paul and Mary was an American folk group formed in New York City in
1961 during the American folk music revival. The trio consisted of Peter
Yarrow (guitar, tenor vocals), Paul Stookey (guitar, baritone vocals),
and Mary Travers (contralto vocals).
They were very successful in the
early- and mid-1960s, with their debut album topping the charts for
weeks, and helped popularize the folk music revival. Following Travers's
death in 2009, Yarrow and Stookey continued to perform as a duo. Yarrow
died in 2025, leaving Stookey the sole surviving member of the group.
The
self-titled debut studio album by American folk trio Peter, Paul and
Mary was released in May 1962 on Warner Bros. Records. Released in both
mono and stereo on catalog no. 1449, it is one of the rare folk albums
to reach No. 1 on the Billboard chart in the US, where it remained for
over a month. The lead-off singles "If I Had a Hammer" and "Lemon Tree"
reached numbers 10 and 35 respectively on the Billboard Pop Singles
chart. It was the group's biggest selling studio album, eventually
certified Double Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of
America for U.S. sales of more than two million copies.
At the Grammy
Awards of 1963, their recording of "If I Had a Hammer" won the Best
Folk Recording and Best Performance by a Vocal Group Grammies.
