FRED is the 1999 International Barbershop Quartet champion of SPEBSQSA (the Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barbershop Quartet Singing in America, Inc.). All are members of the Marietta, GA Chapter and won the title of Dixie District Champs (NC, SC, GA, TN, AL, and MS) in 1991. They have been together since 1990 and have entertained extensively around the world. They have been featured on the Penn and Teller show, a PBS special and several other national events including Music Educatoržs presentations and corporate conventions. FRED's blend of traditional songs, expansive harmonies and contemporary humor has made these four fine gentlemen from Georgia one of the most successful barbershop quartets in history.

Zippitty DooDah Me And My Shadow What A Wonderful World Little Brown Jug Amazing Grace Amore I Gotta Be E Can Can Sweet Embraceable You Fred Vegas Medley Where Did The Time Go |
Barbershop Comedy specialists and 1999 SPEBSQSA International Quartet champs Fred have 3 excellent CDs and one DVD under their belts, and "The FreDinci Code" is another winner! Cool graphics on the liner notes include the boys as "Claytino," "Joseppi," "Regetonni" and "Stupido" Fredinci, and have them performing in togas before an amazed, heavily Photoshopped version of DaVinci's "Last Supper." The "FreDinci Code," or songlist, includes 11 straight, or altered, tunes, "Zippitty DooDah," "Me and My Shadow," "What a Wonderful World," "Little Brown Jug," the totally silly Italian lesson "Amore," and "I Gotta Be E," the manic "Can Can," "Sweet Embraceable You," the crazed impersonations of "Fred Vegas Medley" and "Where Did the Time Go." Where indeed? The FreDinci Code needs to be listened to carefully again and again to pick up the jokes, or clues as the case may be. Good, funny stuff.

I've Got Rhythm Just the Way You Look Tonight Streets of Laredo Muskrat Ramble Ya Gotta Know How to Dance Medley Love's Old Sweet Song I Never Will Marry I Can't Give You Anything but Love/LOVE medley I've Got my Love to Keep me Warm Old Folks at Home Please Kind Sir I Don't Know Why Jungle Book Medley Get Happy |
They're Back! Get the wimmin and chillun off the streets. Gather them by the old CD player and enjoy! They alternate between simply beautiful songs and humor which frequently takes one by surprise because the singing is so good just before they go off the deep end. There are a couple of updated old Smothers Brothers gags, "Streets of Laredo" and "I Never Will Marry." There are a couple of wacky intros to otherwise wonderful songs. They spooflicate Steven Foster unmercifully in an verbal introduction and then sing a beautiful "Old Folks At Home." A melodic "I Don't Know Why" starts so beautifully and then...the vocal horns...

Hello, Hello, Hello Church Bells Fit As A Fiddle When I Fall In Love Let's Get Away From It All Herman And Sally This Little Light Of Mine The Song Has Ended Blue Skies Write Myself A Letter/Ballin The Jack Harmony Lanes/Bowling Shoes Big Time Gutter Ball Hindustan Someone's Rockin My Dreamboat Tiger Rag |
Just how good do you have to be before you can be a barbershop
comedy group? Really, really, good! Winning medalists at the International Finals
in 1999 (first place), 1998 (fourth place) and 1997 (second place) are some
of their triumphs but their greatest triumph will be the pure enjoyment you
will have each time you hear this cross between wonderful singers and class
clowns! For pure goofiness try "Herman and Sally," Harmony Lanes/Bowling
Shoes," "Big Time Gutter Ball" or the atrocious "Hindustan,"
a live recording. Then there is "This Little Light of Mine" with its
ballistic ending or the beautiful "Someone's Rockin' My Dreamboat."
Where does it all end? ...at the last song, of course!
