Biography

Hit-makers in the late '40s and early '50s, The Weavers evolved from the earlier Pete Seeger/Woody Guthrie-led folk/political activist group, The Almanac Singers. Blacklisted during the McCarthy era, The Weavers still managed to ignite the late '50s/early '60s folk revival. Musically, they played an important role in establishing folk music as a commercially viable art form and introduced many classic songs to the American musical lexicon.
