Three Men and a Tenor
Four vocalists and ocassionally a drum track and the audience is in for a real treat. From infants to retirees, an eclectic spread of music and styles, harmony and good clean humor, we are both road tested and "on" every show. "I swear I hear a band up there" is a common comment. We are four of the hardest workers in the business as our 15th anniversary as a group (with all original members) arrives Jan. 2007. We have Self-produced 7 projects (including original material)along with a National PBS Concert Special (Detroit Public Television). Our most recent CD is "LIVE in '05" recorded in August of '05.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Born at college in Jan. of 1992 in the Men's Glee Club at Michigan State University we were pushed into full-time performering by May of 1995 due to the response and demand for us. We incorporated and have been touring ever since.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We have played in Europe and extensively across the USA. Our most recent (and return) trip to Germany performing in US Military Bases for the families of troops stationed down range in Afganistan and Iraq and also the general German Public was again a pleasure as we did it without the USO or AIE help, and received a handsome grant from the Daimler/Chrysler Corp. to make the tour possible.
