Straight No Chaser - Another Round

One of our favorite Collegiate a cappella groups, Indiana University's 9-man Straight No Chaser (great name, by the way) goes after another CARA award with the release of another winner (their 7th), "Another Round." 14 beautifully-arranged (by group members Tyler Trepp, Jeff Tanski, Walter Chase and Nick Jaenicke) covers; some favorites are B. McNight's "Superhero," Billy Joel's "Allentown," Rascal Flatts' "I Melt," M. Broussard's "Wanderer," Cole Porter's "I Get A Kick Out of You," the Hansons' "Penny and Me," Stevie Wonder's "As," Nsync's "Something Like You" and a live cut of Wild Cherry's "Play That Funky Music, White Boy." Solid vocal percussion, great harmonies and solos, energy and attitude—what's not to like? 1773 CD 14.95
Listen to "I Get a Kick Out of You
