A capella group startup!?

[Biscayne]

Hey guys,

First off, Name's Biscayne, I do mostly vocal work but dabble in arranging.

I was wondering if anyone had thought of doing an acapella group a la "Rockapella" within the community. If there is one, then why haven't I heard of it?

If there isn't, who would be interested in starting one?

Thanks
Biscayne

This sounds like a fun idea. I'd be all for helping out with it. Not going to be something that is easy to do however.

[Biscayne]

No, probably not. But, if it were easy to be good, everyone would be great.

[NightmareSnake]

YES.

OH GOD YES.

I'd love to at least try and do some singing.
I have this mic sitting around and nothing to sing.

Okay, so there is some interest.

Let's talk actually doing it.

A few major issues have to be worked out, like who is singing what. I guess I'd need an audition piece. Anyone feel up to writing a simple five-eight part acapella song? Or maybe I could arrange one real quick... Not so much for weeding people out, more for putting people in the right places.

EDIT: Just watched the latest episode. There's our audition song, as soon as I arrange it (gimme an day or so...)

Excellent idea.

If you have skype, it'd be really easy to organize everything through that.

Hit me up! I'm definitely interested. : )

Every time someone talks about skyping I die a bit inside.
I guess I should start using it.
