The Mamas & The Papas; hand-drawn portrait of the group in 1970 with (L to R) Denny Doherty, Michelle Phillips, Cass Elliot and John Phillips (behind).
The Mamas & the Papas were an American folk rock vocal group that recorded and performed from 1965 to 1968, with a brief reunion in 1971.
The group was a defining force in the music scene of the counterculture of the 1960s. Formed in New York City, the group consisted of Americans John Phillips, Cass Elliot, Michelle Phillips, and Canadian Denny Doherty.
Their sound was based on vocal harmonies arranged by John Phillips – the songwriter and leader of the group – who adapted folk to the new beat style of the early 1960s.
The band’s name was inspired by the Hells Angels, whose female associates were called “mamas”.
The Mamas & the Papas released five studio albums and 17 singles, six of which made the Billboard top 10, and has sold close to 40 million records worldwide.
After their break-up in 1968, the band reunited briefly to record the album People Like Us in 1971 but split again shortly after the album was released.
They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998 for their contributions to the music industry.
Some of their most popular singles include “California Dreamin'”, “Monday, Monday”, “Go Where You Wanna Go”, “I Saw Her Again”, “Look Through My Window”, “Dream A Little Dream Of Me” and “Dedicated to the One I Love”.
Cass Elliot died of heart failure in London on July 29, 1974, after completing a two-week engagement at the Palladium.
John Phillips died of heart failure in Los Angeles on March 18, 2001.
Denny Doherty died on January 19, 2007, at his home in Mississauga, Ontario, from kidney failure, following surgery for an abdominal aortic aneurysm.
As of 2025, Michelle Phillips is the last surviving member of the band’s original lineup.
