Peter Yarrow, the iconic singer-songwriter of Peter, Paul and Mary, passed away at age 86 after a four-year battle with bladder cancer, leaving a lasting musical legacy.
Known for their significant contribution to the folk music scene, Yarrow and the trio's emotive harmonies not only captivated audiences but also served as a powerful voice for civil rights and anti-war sentiment.
Yarrow's work with Peter, Paul and Mary was marked by notable hits, including the beloved 'Puff the Magic Dragon,' and a strong presence in pivotal historical moments like the 1963 March on Washington.
After a successful hiatus, the trio reconvened in 1978 for crucial events like 'Survival Sunday' and continued to perform until Yarrow’s collaborators' passing, indicating their commitment to their art and causes.
