The Folksmen trio—Mark Shubb, Alan Barrows, and Jerry Palter—were once the most popular of the acts but have not appeared together in decades.

The New Main Street Singers are the second generation of the original Main Street Singers, formed by George Menschell, the only living member of the original group, who sings and holds a guitar he cannot play.

The group is known for their complex harmonies, forming what Menschell terms a "neuftet".
