First off, I want to thank everyone who came to our concert last Friday! It was awesome to see you all there and I know we had a blast putting on the show. We hope you guys enjoyed it as much as we did!
Second, I want you all to know that we have exciting stuff coming up in the rest of the year. Keep an eye out on the site, we'll be posting news periodically to update you guys on our status.
Finally, I'll be updating the current repertoire to include everything we did at this last concert, and I may even include some of the new stuff we'll be doing starting next term. If not, keep an eye on that as well, we have some great songs that we'll be adding to our sets!
An Introduction
8 to the Bar is the only all male A Cappella group at Drexel University (Philadelphia, PA). Founded in 1997 as Drexel’s first recognized A Cappella group, we are about to celebrate our 10 year anniversary.
The most unique thing about our group is that we come from various majors, ethnicities, and backgrounds. This presents us with the challenge of finding music that fits with the whole group. Instead of just doing the top 10 songs on the radio, or songs that have been overplayed to death - we try to mix it up. We sing contemporary music from all genres. We’ve had set lists where we’ve gone from Hippy to Heavy Metal, Pop to Classic Rock, Reggae to Classical, and Oldies to Modern Rock. With such a wide variety, we have no doubt you’ve heard at least one of our songs – and we’ll probably introduce you to a few artists you haven’t, but would like to hear more of.
If you're a member of another A Cappella group and would like to invite us to sing at your university/college feel free to Contact Us. We're always on the lookout for a good show.
Also, ladies, if you're interested in singing A Cappella and you think that this is the only group here at Drexel University, think again! Our sister group, The Treblemakers, an all female A Cappella group, is awesome! If you would like to learn more about them, visit their website : www.DUTreblemakers.com
