Straight No Chaser

If you have not been a part of the YouTube buzz, you have to check these guys out ASAP! Straight No Chaser is an 'a cappella' group consisting of 10 men. The group started out at Indiana University in the fall of 1996 when founder Dan Ponce hand picked the other members. Video from their college performances made it onto YouTube and 8+ million views and a signing to Atlantic records, Straight No Chaser has gained national interests (well worth it).

I'm hooked. These guys are freakin' awesome! Marily came home the other day and found them on YouTube after hearing their rendition of '12 days of Christmas' on the radio. The song was originally written by Richard Gregory while he served in the Navy back in the 50's, but Straight No Chaser added their own comedic touch to the song and it is a 'must hear.' After hearing this song and many others posted to YouTube, I told Marily to buy the album off iTunes. If you enjoy it, please do the same!
