Product Description
Originally formed a dozen years ago while students together at Indiana University, the a cappella group has reassembled and reemerged after their video for 'The 12 Days of Christmas' became a phenomenon with almost 8 million views on YouTube. In an era when so much pop music is the product of digital processing and vocal pro-tooling, Straight No Chaser is the real deal- the captivating sound of ten unadulterated human voices coming together to make extraordinary music that is moving people in a fundamental sense...and with a sense of humor.

Summary: Delighted in Dallas 2008-12-01
Comment: This acapella group is very talented and has an interesting history. Their holiday song selections are good - some original and some traditional. The arrangements are also good and it's sometimes hard to believe that there are no musical instruments - their voices are the only instruments. Enjoyed this CD very much!

Summary: Fabulous Christmas CD 2008-11-29
Comment: One of my weaknesses is holiday music. Every year I anxiously await the newly released Christmas albums and always select two or three to add to my collection.
This one I selected for this year and I LOVE it !! What is also pretty amazing is that my husband and 14-year-old daughter also like it. When something appeals to all three of us, it's remarkable. We had this on the stereo all day yesterday while putting up the decortions around the house. We still weren't tired of it by last night and just sat and listened to the music and appreciated how truly wonderful this CD is.
The voices are pure, on most tracks there is no instrumentation and the creativity is amazing. I also enjoyed the fact that there were many old "standby" Christmas songs that were done with a new twist while staying true to the music. If you only buy one Christmas CD this year, this should be it ! I hope their success continues and we can look forward to more music coming from this fantastic group.

Summary: Amazing vocals and arrangements! 2008-11-26
Comment: Yes, like 8 million others, I was hooked on this group after viewing the "12 Days of Christmas" YouTube video. I am a long time fan of a capella music, and SNC has recorded THE holiday CD of the year! The arrangement of Auld Lang Syne will have you looking forward to New Year's Eve this year.

Summary: Get these guys another album!!! 2008-11-22
Comment: I first found SNC on the web last year (like 8,000,000 other people), and fell in love with their fun, energetic sound. Now, as a true Cinderella story, these gentlemen are pulled from their regular lives to record, what else, but the Christmas song and album that made them a youtube hit. The music is simply fantastic - fun, poignant, playful... Holiday Spirits has it all. Also, even if you don't know the music, you have to love their story... 10 friends who get tapped to make a record almost 10 years after the concert that was the viral hit. They are so fun, unassuming and just grateful to be given this chance. How often does that happen?
Check the album out. You will love it. I hope enough people love it so that SNC continues to record other albums.
