In 2001 Three won the Australian ARIA award for 'Best Independent Release' (the ARIAs are Australia's highest awards in the music industry). In early 2002 Three went Platinum, selling in excess 75,000 copies, it has now sold well over 100,000.
In the United States it was released on ATO Records, with a few more tracks than the Australian CD - partly because it was the first John Butler Trio album released in the United States.
