I’m Gonna Miss This. March 22, 2012

I just got an email from the Troy Savings Bank Music Hall in Troy, NY (next to Albany) about an upcoming show I can’t make.

But I checked out their promo video, and liked it so much I thought I’d share it with you.  Those of you who come by regularly know that I’m a fool for a cappella groups, and Vox Audio certainly scratches that itch for me.

Here’s their tribute to their sound man, a much-overlooked part of any live act.  They pay tribute with love and humor, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Enjoy!

If You Love Music… January 30, 2012

Whenever I’m in the Boston area on a weekend, I tune in to Emerson College’s radio station, WERS, and try to catch their afternoon All A Cappella show.

A cappella singing has come a long way from the (already amazing) Take Six days, and with the inclusion of beat-boxing (thank you, Rap!) it’s moved into the hard-to-believe realm.

If you can invest any part of the 5:35 it takes to hear the Boston University Dear Abbys take on U2’s “Where The Streets Have No Name” with nothing but their collective voices, I promise you won’t consider it to be time wasted.

Where The Streets Have No Name

I’m sorry there’s no video to accompany this, as I’d love to see it myself!

And BTW, you can live-stream this program at WERS.ORG.  I believe it runs Saturday and Sunday from 2pm to 5pm EST.
