\nCited as an influence by recording artists as musically and generationally diverse as \;Dylan\, \;Crosby\, Stills &\; Nash \;and \;The Eagles \;to comedian and banjo player \;Steve Martin \;to contemporary artists such as the multi-Grammy®\; winners \;Mumford &\; Sons \;and \;The Avett Brothers\, \;The Kingston Trio \;recently celebrated 60 years of entertaining audiences with the &ldquo\;Keep the Music Playing Tour.&rdquo\;
\n
\nAll three current members\, \;Mike Marvin\, \;Tim Gorelangton \;and \;Don Marovich \;have intrinsic links to and experience with the original group: Mike is the adopted son of founding member Nick Reynolds\, who was also his musical mentor\; Tim\, a close friend since boyhood\, is one of the few musicians outside the Trio who has recorded with Nick Reynolds\; and Don Marovich\, who toured with the Trio. Many of their personal memories recall the iconic trio&rsquo\;s performances and journey as folk music made its extraordinary ascent to the pinnacle of popular culture &ndash\; and the top of the music charts. \;
\n
\nBefore the Kingston Trio\, folk music was relegated to basements and coffee shops. Adding a youthful pop flair and dynamic arrangements to traditional tunes\, the Trio opened up Folk Music to the world in the late 50&rsquo\;s\, becoming the standard bearers for the 60&rsquo\;s folk boom and creating a multitude of followers in their wake. They are largely responsible for making acoustic &ldquo\;roots&rdquo\; music commercially viable. In the height of their fame\, The Kingston Trio graced the cover of \;Life magazine\, won \;Grammy&rsquo\;s (including the first-ever in the folk category)\, and consistently hit the #1 spot on the \;Billboard charts.
\n
\nStill going strong\, the Trio continues to tour and perform such timeless classics &ldquo\;Where Have All The Flowers Gone\,&rdquo\; &ldquo\;Tom Dooley&rdquo\; and &ldquo\;Charlie &\; the MTA.&rdquo\;
