BLT is a folk trio made up of Twin Cities musicians Karl Burke, Rich Lindell, and Roady Tate. The group performs contemporary and traditional folk songs along with a few Celtic, oldies, and pop tunes.

The unique blend of voices, guitars, and musical styles will keep you coming back again and again. Karl's rich baritone voice has been compared to that of Canadian folk singers, James Keelaghan, and the late Stan Rogers. Rich has written several humorous songs which delight audiences. Both he and Roady perform original works, as well as favorites from past decades. Roady, an exceptional lead guitarist, has a hauntingly beautiful voice. Together, BLT combines solo, duo, and trio textures into a performance rich with harmony, warmth, artistry, and humor.

An evening of great music and fun is in store when these fellows set up the night with traditional & contemporary folk, oldies but goodies, a little pop, and whatever. Mixing between single, duo, and some trio work, it promises to be a definite good time for all.
