The Folk Project Special Concerts presents The Kingston Trio with Mike Agranoff

The Kingston Trio is bringing their legendary harmonies, storytelling magic, and the classic hits that sparked a musical revolution to the Folk Project in celebration of the Golden Anniversary of Troubadour Concerts — 50 years of Friday musical magic. From “Tom Dooley” to “Where Have All the Flowers Gone,” this iconic group from the golden era of American folk will bring musical history back to life. In celebration of 60-plus years of active performance, this iconic folk group performs their best-loved songs as part of the 2025 ‘Keep The Music Playing’ national tour.

Mike Agranoff is one of those folk performers that steadfastly defies categorization, and yet amasses stalwart fans from folk aficionados of all categories. He draws his material from sources as diverse as traditional ballads and fiddle tunes, Tin Pan Alley, contemporaries in the Folk World, and his own witty pen. He delivers it with a skilled hand on guitar, piano, and concertina, an almost telepathic transmittal of the essence of the song, and occasionally sly twinkle in the eye in anticipation of some of the most horrible parodies ever perpetrated on an unsuspecting audience. A signature feature of Mike’s performances are his inclusion of some heart-stopping spoken word pieces that rivet the listener to unforgettable stories.
