The Three Degrees son un grupo femenino de Philadelphia soul y música disco formado en 1963 en Filadelfia. Aunque siempre ha estado formado por tres intérpretes, durante su existencia se han sucedido una serie de cambios, habiendo representado al grupo un total de doce mujeres. Las integrantes originales del combo fueron Fayette Pinkney, Shirley Porter y Linda Turner. El grupo firmó por el sello Philadelphia International en 1973, siendo uno de los representantes más característicos del sonido pre disco característico de esta casa.[1]

Su mayor éxito fue el hit publicado en 1974 "When Will I See You Again", que vendió más de dos millones de copias.
