Coats
The Coats Promo Digital Press Kit
One of the most in-demand corporate and college acts in the U.S. today! The Coats vocal band started on the street corners of Seattle, Washington's famous Pike Place Market. Singing for tourists, locals, fish vendors, and fellow buskers, their humble ambitions of earning a few clams to fight off the tuition bills quickly evolved into a full-time international performance career. They've since won national vocal competitions, sang for the President of the United States, and have been fortunate enough to share the stage with such talented fellow entertainers as Ronnie Milsap, Trisha Yearwood, Montgomery Gentry, The Beach Boys, Tanya Tucker, Billy Dean, Crystal Gayle, and Colin Ray, just to name a few, all while continuing their tradition of outreach performances and workshops supporting music in schools throughout the northwest.

PS
There has been a lot of talk about whether or not this track really IS performed by voices.
It is. However, like many people are noticing: 'processors' are being used. Big time.
Autotune is being used on the lead singer, because we wanted to create a sound that somewhat matches the GLaDOS computervoice.
Reverbs, delays, and distortion was used as well.
