Upcoming and GIVEAWAY: Straight No Chaser 25th Anniversary Celebration {ends 11/13}
I love a capella but have never seen Straight No Chaser in concert before; however, I'm excited to announce that their 25th Anniversary Celebration tour will be at the Masonic Temple Theater in Detroit on December 17.
One of my lucky readers will win a pair of tickets to see the concert, too!
About the show:
Chart-topping a cappella group Straight No Chaser will celebrate their 25th anniversary in 2022 with a 62-date fall tour and their third PBS special airing nationwide starting in June.
Formed during the 1996-1997 school year at Indiana University, a cappella group Straight No Chaser –which began, according to group memberSteve Morganas a “way to meet girls” – eventually emerged at the forefront of the modern day a cappella movement, and has since sold more than three million albums worldwide, garnered more than a billion streams, and sold more than 1.5 million concert tickets worldwide.
“When we started Straight No Chaser as college kids at Indiana University, we never imagined that 25 years later, we’d have two albums certified gold and tour dates around the world,” said group member Walter Chase.“What a ride it has been. It has literally been a dream come true.”
This fall, the group will kick off their “The 25th Anniversary Celebration” tour on October 20th in Deadwood, South Dakota, and will perform through New Year’s Eve, where the tour wraps up in Portland, OR. In total, this fall the group will perform 62 shows.
About Straight No Chaser:
Straight No Chaser ushered in the modern a cappella craze with their unexpected breakthrough version of "The 12 Days of Christmas" fourteen years ago, reuniting a group of college friends from Indiana University who went their separate ways following graduation. Now celebrating their 25th anniversary since those beginnings, the group has clocked in two RIAA-certified Gold records, one billion streams on Pandora alone, and more than a million concert tickets sold worldwide to their unforgettable live shows. They’ve performed on “Today,” “GMA3,” and “Christmas in Rockefeller Center” among others and recorded three concerts for PBS which aired nationwide. Following their 25th Anniversary Celebration Tour this fall, the group will release a new album in 2023.
