In 1957 The Kingston Trio emerged from San Francisco's North Beach club scene to take the country by storm, bringing the rich tradition of American folk music into the mainstream for the first time. During the late '50s and early '60s, The Kingston Trio was the number one vocal group in the world-musical and cultural phenomenon's whose record sales and concert draws were matched only by The Beatles. Through changing times, the Trio has played on, remaining popular for a simple reason-great songs that sound as good today as the first time you heard them. Almost fifty years after "Tom Dooley" shot to the top of the charts, the Trio is still on the road thirty weeks each year, bringing back all the great memories and making new ones.
