This Colorado-based evenly-mixed voice a cappella octet was formed in 1999, and has a varied repertoire ranging from Jazz to Pop, Classical and Gospel to Folk. 'Beyond Ordinary's' 14 cuts highlight this versatility, beginning with Stefan Farrenkopf's deadpan 'Easter Island Head,' Jesse Harris' moody 'Don't Know Why,' Charles Sylvestri and Eric Whitacre's brooding , dissonant 'Sleep,' the nice Derric Johnson-arranged 'Railroad Medley,' a bluesy, rhythmic 'Route 66,' traditional favorites 'Amazing Grace' and 'Ezekiel Saw de Wheel,' Greg Jasperse's ethereal 'Voice Dance,' Lennon/McCartney's 'Lady Madonna,' the Moses Hogan-arranged spiritual 'Elijah Rock,' and finishing strong with the traditional 'All Creatures of Our God and King.' DACP has three excellent recordings and years of live performances under their belts, and it shows. Sweet harmonies, solid vocal percussion, deep basslines, spirited leads-this is fun stuff from this talented octet!
