The Ambassadors of Harmony is Barbershop in grand form. Boasting
premier talent, great versatility, and proven diligence, they shine as brightly
as their medals won from numerous International Chorus competitions. This
particular effort titled "Sing Sing Sing", the Louis Prima title track, is
seasoned with Traditionals of the Jazz, Americana, English and Folk kind.
Upon hearing, it is very easy to detect how much fun these guys are having.
Sometimes certain music is best seen live, and it is roaringly apparent that
this group is an incredible sight to see. These men sing with so much expression,
you might feel you are right there in the audience. "That Old Black Magic,"
made famous by the Suntones, "The Heather on the Hill" by Loerner and Lowe,
"Hard Times Come Again No More", by Stephen Foster are songs included in this
new release. Directed by David Wright and Gas House Gang's Jim Henry.

and feelings of love and nostalgia that come though it are part of the group's

shot of the 115-strong group on stage in complete "Toyland" costumes, from clowns
and roman soldiers to pandas, cats, sailors, space cadets, Spidermanyou name
it. It all says "fun," loud and clear, and that's how the group sings. 12 songs
are here: "Applause," "I'm Beginning to See the Light," "Through the Years,"
"My Honey's Lovin' Arms," the Turtles' "Happy Together," "The Music of the Night,"
"Toy Song," "Toyland," "Short People," "One Alone," "Tonight" and "Friends."
That must have been an unforgettable performance at SPEBSQSA Nashville, and

harmony that flows throughout.
