Fans of legendary folk icons The Kingston Trio now have an opportunity to re-discover their timeless music as part of the national “Keep the Music Playing” tour which celebrates the group’s more than 60 years of entertaining audiences everywhere with performances of many of the Trio’s best-loved songs.
All three current members, Mike Marvin, Tim Gorelangton and Don Marovich have intrinsic links to and experience with the original group: Mike, the “adopted son” of Nick Reynolds, grew up at the knee of the Kingston Trio founding member, who was his life-long 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 has performed with the Trio and who plays the guitar, banjo and mandolin.
Many of their personal memories recall the iconic trio’s performances and journey as folk music made its extraordinary ascent to the pinnacle of popular culture – and the top of the music charts.
