OC Times

OC Times is a young, energetic barbershop quartet breathing new life into some of our favorite Standards and barbershop classics. Inspired by artists like Michael Buble’, Sinatra, and Elvis; OC Times brings something new to the table: Traditional barbershop harmony; influenced by early American Rock and Roll and stylized by pop-culture. With a repertoire varying from Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Paul Anka and even the great songwriter, Stephen Foster; this quartet’s fresh style and sound naturally appeals to the youth, while paying tribute to the past.

Let's Fly

Good Luck Charm Teddy Bear Love Me Drivin' Me Crazy Put Your Head On My Shoulder Sold (The Grundy County Auction Incident) Honey (Open That Door) / Hey Good Lookin' Medley Grow Old With You So Much In Love Stormy Weather Come Fly With Me Anytime At All You're 16, You're Beautiful, and You're Mine What a Wonderful World Save The Last Dance For Me / Sway Medley

Tenor Shawn York, lead Sean Devine (of the Alley Cats), baritone Patrick Claypool and bass Corey Hunt, all talented young men from Orange County, CA, proved with their 2nd place medal at the recent SPEBSQSA competitions in Denver that a far-from-quiet young revolution is happening in the Barbershop world. The quartet, also members of Chorus Gold medal-winners (and youngest-ever choral entrants) Westminster Chorus, rose from 46th place to 18th in 2004, to 5th place in 2005, and in 2007 second only to supergroup Max Q. "Let's Fly" is 15 innovatively-arranged (by group arranger Aaron Dale), flawlessly performed winners, from OC standards "Good Luck Charm," "Put Your Head On My Shoulder," "Honey (Open That Door)/Hey Good Lookin' Medley," "Love Me," and "Come Fly with Me," to new winners "Teddy Bear," "Drivin' Me Crazy," "So Much in Love," a brilliant "Stormy Weather," "Anytime at All," "You're 16, You're Beautiful, and You're Mine" and the last cut, "Save the Last Dance For Me/Sway Medley," this collection impresses at every turn. Audiences call them "fresh," "cutting edge," "pushing the envelope"—but listen to "Let's Fly" for yourself, hear the fast-rising future of Barbershop, and come up with your own adjectives!

OC Times

Come Fly With Me Honey Open That Door / Hey Good Lookin' Medley Love Me Good Luck Charm Put Your Head On My Shoulder Save The Last Dance / Sway Medley The Way You Look Tonight South Rampart Street Parade

These four fresh-faced, talented young men from (of course) Orange County, CA, inspired by such artists as Michael Buble, Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley, are reincarnating some of the great swing music songs and rock 'n roll classic hits, with the intention of taking barbershop harmony back to where it started over a century ago, into pop culture. Cutting their barbershop chops as International Chorus gold medalists with the Masters of Harmony as well as section leaders with the local Westminster Chorus, OC Times has been rising like winged cream in International Quartet competition, starting the 2004 contest ranked 46th and rising to 18th at the finish. In 2005 they took the stage at the LDS Conference Center in Salt Lake City, and delivered 6 songs to earn themselves a 5th place International medal. These six songs, "Come Fly With Me," "Honey, Open That Door/Hey Good Lookin' (medley)," "Love Me," "Good Luck Charm," "Put Your Head on My Shoulder" and "Save the Last Dance/Sway (medley)" are live from all three rounds of their award-winning performance. As a bonus, we get to hear the guys as part of the Westminster Chorus (which placed 9th in 2004 and are the youngest chorus every to compete on the international stage) singing "The Way You Look Tonight" and "South Rampart Street Parade." Ringing harmonies, great arrangements, strong leads—the SLC audience loves OC Times, and so do we!
