Formed in San Francisco in 1956, The Kingston Trio has entertained audiences for over 50 years. The two-time Grammy® award-winning group greatly influenced the folk movement during the late ’50s and early ’60s, with hits such as “Scotch and Soda” and “Tom Dooley” paving the way for artists such as Peter, Paul & Mary, The Highwaymen and The Limelighters -- their influence has even gone beyond folk, with rockers such as Fleetwood Mac’s Lindsey Buckingham proclaiming them an early inspiration. Five of the trio’s albums reached #1 on the Billboard pop album chart and “Tom Dooley” hit #1 on the pop singles chart. The group members changed over time but their repertoire has stayed true to their roots with their signature vocals, harmonies, acoustic guitars and banjo.
