Using only acoustic guitars and banjos, and singing simple yet memorable melodies, The Kingston Trio revolutionized popular music, reawakening America to its own rich folk music heritage. The Kingston Trio was the number one vocal group in the world, a musical and cultural phenomenon whose record sales and concert draws were matched only by The Beatles. In a feat yet to be surpassed, BILLBOARD magazine listed four Kingston Trio albums in their Top 10 at the same time. The group has also collected three Grammy Awards and numerous gold records. Some of their instantly recognizable hits include: "Tom Dooley," "MTA," "Scotch and Soda" and "Tijuana Jail." The Kingston Trio's trademark three-part harmony and clean, crisp sound consists of George Grove, Bill Zorn and Rick Dougherty.
