Genre: Folk
The Chad Mitchell Trio was an American folk music group during the 1960s. The group became known for their willingness to perform both serious and satirical songs that criticized current events and news-makers, unlike the typical 'folk music' groups of their time.
The original group was formed by Gonzaga University students and Glee Club members William Chadbourne Mitchell (from Spokane, Washington); Mike Kobluk (from Trail, British Columbia, Canada); and Mike Pugh (from Pasco, Washington). They were encouraged by Spokane, Washington Roman Catholic priest Reinard W. Beaver, who invited the three to travel with him to New York City in the summer of 1959 and to try performing in the burgeoning folk-music scene. Unlike many fellow folk-music groups, none of the trio played instruments.
