Various Arrangers : A Cappella Country

Few country tunes in the past decade have had a bigger impact that his future classic "Mayberry" by Rascal Flatts, which reminds us how good the good old days were. The fast-moving harmonies and sixteenth note background textures supporting the tenor solo sound far harder to sing than they are, resulting in a great "show-off" piece for your group. Craig Hella Johnson's setting of Dolly Parton's "Light of a Clear Blue Morning" is infused with light and hopefulness as it opens with a solo soprano and gradually builds to a joyful overflowing of sound and vocal texture, then gently relaxing into a reflective conclusion. The tender a cappella ballad "When You Say Nothing at All" recorded by Alison Krauss captures all the emotion and expressiveness you could ever want. Perfect for jazz and pop groups, you'll create sheer magic in concert! Introduce your choir to the fun of a cappella singing with this accessible arrangement of the Lee Ann Womack hit "I Hope You Dance" that topped the charts. Crafted for success, this setting gives all the parts a chance to sing the melody while the background vocals are easy and create a perfect stylistic texture. Whether you sing it straight or camp it up, the novelty tune "Happy Trails" from the King of the Cowboys makes a great encore. A cappella or accompanied, you'll ride off into the sunset in style!

Songlist: Happy Trails, I Hope You Dance, Mayberry, When You Say Nothing at All, Light of a Clear Blue Morning

Four Shadow : Four : 1 CD

Four Shadow : Four

The new a cappella sensation from Minneapolis, MN, talented all male quartet Four Shadow has the kind of slogan that warms our a cappella hearts, "All Vocals All The Time." They perform a repertoire of a number of original songs, as well as tunes by the Beatles, Paul Simon and the Dave Matthews Band, for audiences across America, singing over 150 shows a year in over 40 states. They have shared the stage with Huey Lewis, the Persuasions and Lonestar, and performed live on NBC's "Today" show. 13 songs, some favorites: the excellent, group-written originals "Breathin'," "Better Than This" and "Summer Sunday," Curtis Mayfield's Motown hit, "It's Alright," "Day Tripper," Buffalo Springfield's (made famous by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young) "For What It's Worth," James Brown's upbeat "I Feel Good," CSN&Y's "Seven Bridges Road," the fairly silly "Blankets and Pie," (traditional melody with words by the group's Drew Tullar) "It's Gonna Rain" and the sublime, driving "Kyrie." OK, our favorites include just about all the songs, but in fact there's not a weak cut here. Crisp, solid vocal percussion, bright, innovative arrangements, and most of all, sheer vocal talent multiplied by four adds up to a stunning debut CD for this fast-rising young quartet from Minneapolis!

Songlist: Breathin', Better Than This, When You Say Nothing At All, It's Alright, Day Tripper, For What It's Worth, I Feel Good, Here There, Seven Bridges Road, Blankets And Pie, Summer Sunday, It's Gonna Rain, Kyrie
