In October 2002, she began work in the play Chicago in Boston. He succumbed to a stroke on December 23, 1994 (age 48). She also participated in a national tour with Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, where she played the character of The Narrator, and as Cinderella in the national tour of the play of the same name. Carollo and Dennison faded into the category of "Where are they now?", but Hamilton continued writing songs with his wife, Ann, throughout the eighties.

She also participated in the Broadway production of Beauty and the Beast (as Belle), and Gypsy at The Papermill Playhouse (as Gypsy Rose Lee). A few minor singles followed (including "Winners and Losers"), but in 1976, the trio disbanded and went their separate ways. She also played Fanny Brice in the Funny Girl touring production. The next year, the band decided to take a chance and changed their group name to Hamilton, Joe Frank & Dennison. Upon returning to the States, she also participated on the Broadway version of the 1950s musical, but this time she played Rizzo. In 1975, they had their first US Top 40 hit in four years - a soft-rock ballad called "Fallin' in Love"; this song proved to be even bigger than their last Top 40 hit, reaching US #1, and became their first (and only) song to chart in the UK; it also gave them their second gold record. Then, she went to London, where she landed the character of Sandy on London's West End's theatrical production of Grease. Soon, they left Dunhill and signed with Playboy Records in the mid-seventies.

After her popularity as a pop singer waned, she returned to Broadway in 1992, playing Eponine in Les Misérables. The trio continued to record and perform with very little success. In 1989, at the peak of her popularity, she was the subject of a satirical song by Mojo Nixon, entitled "Debbie Gibson Is Pregnant With My Two-headed Love Child". Although the remaining two members found a replacement in Alan Dennison, they did not even change their group name! It is believed that the members thought it would be foolish to jeopardize the small recognition that the struggling band had had. By this time, she and Tiffany, with her remake of "I Think We're Alone Now", were fighting for the top position as teen queen of the United States. In 1973, Reynolds left the band to join another band called Shango. Her initial success was followed by another smash hit in "Out Of The Blue". A series of follow-up singles proved to be unsuccessful.

Another single of hers, "Only In My Dreams", also made it to the top. In 1971, their first two singles "Annabella" and "Daisy Mae" were minor hits, but their third single "Don't Pull Your Love (Out)" was an instant smash climbing up to US #4 and going gold. When Gibson turned 16, she was signed to a recording contract by Atlantic Records, and soon she became the youngest person ever to write, record and produce a number 1 hit, with her single "Foolish Beat", going up to number one. The band signed with Dunhill Records in 1970. When she was 12, Gibson was already performing in Broadway, but as an actress. Inspired by the AM rock music of Three Dog Night, the three men quit their jobs as studio musicians at the turn of the decade to form their own band. When she was eight, she sang at the children's chorus in the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, where she got to meet such singers as Plácido Domingo and others. They recorded with the T-Bones from 1964 to 1966.

At the age of five, she and her sisters began performing in a community theater, and she wrote her first song. They met when they took part in a studio instrumental group called the T-Bones. Gibson was born in 1970 in Brooklyn, New York. Dan Hamilton, Joe Frank Carollo, and Tommy Reynolds began their careers as session musicians.
