The Kingston Trio is an American folk and pop music group that was pivotal in the folk revival from the late 1950s to the late 1960s. Formed in 1957, the group's clean-cut image and polished sound made folk music accessible to a broader audience, bridging the gap between traditional folk and mainstream pop.

Renowned for hits such as "Tom Dooley," a rendition of a 19th-century murder ballad, and "M.T.A.," a humorous protest song about a man trapped on Boston’s subway system, The Kingston Trio's music was characterized by tight vocal harmonies, catchy melodies, and acoustic instrumentation. Their success not only brought folk music to the forefront of American popular culture but also paved the way for future folk artists and groups.
