On March 8, 1984, Bob, Clint, and Dave Moffatt of the Moffatts were born.

For some reason, This Day in Music missed the occasion. They're sort of Canada's answer to Hanson.

Hat tip, somewhere else

The Moffatts are a Canadian pop/rock country band composed of brothers Scott, Clint, Bob and Dave Moffatt.

Bob and Clint are identical twins, while Dave is a fraternal triplet.

The band began as a country music vocal group during their childhood and released three records under Polydor Nashville: It's a Wonderful World (1993), The Moffatts (1995), and A Moffatt Christmas (1996). At the time, it was said that they were the youngest band to ever sign a major label recording contract. They released their first pop album Chapter I: A New Beginning (1998). They released one more album Submodalities in 2000 before disbanding in 2001. The band reunited for a one-off online Christmas show on December 22, 2012, on Stageit. In February 2017, Scott, Bob and Clint Moffatt embarked on an extensive promotional tour in Asia for The Moffatts Farewell Tour before being rejoined by Dave in 2018 for the second leg of the Reunion Tour.

Bob and Clint have formed a duo called Music Travel Love.
