If the phrase “male a cappella group” conjures up an image of students in blue blazers, ties, and khakis singing traditional college songs on ivied campuses, think again. Straight No Chaser (SNC) are neither strait-laced nor straight-faced, but neither are they vaudeville-style kitsch. They have emerged as a phenomenon with a massive fan base and a long list of accomplishments, including two RIAA Gold Certified albums, over one and a half million concert tickets sold, over one billion streams on Pandora, and over two million albums sold worldwide. SNC are the real deal: the captivating sound of nine unadulterated human voices coming together to make extraordinary music that is moving people in a fundamental sense—and with a sense of humor.
