Third group: Tonic Sol-fa - Friday, Nov. 11, 2011 at 7:30 p.m. in Sinclair Auditorium

"The a cappella quartet Tonic Sol-fa has spent the past decade on the road carving their niche as one of the nation’s top vocal ensembles.  In that time, Tonic Sol-fa has been named one of the top five “must see” groups in America, has been awarded numerous original song and album awards in pop, gospel and holiday genres, and has appeared on NBC’s “Today Show” and in the pages of Newsweek magazine.  With album sales of more than two million copies, the group performs in more than 150 shows across the country each year.  In 2010, Tonic Sol-fa won its first Emmy Award in the “Musical Composition/Arrangement” category for a song performed in a Toys for Tots Public Service Annoucement. The New York Times describes Tonic Sol-fa’s sound as, “A vocal kaleidoscope…unique to the human voice.”   Critics and Fans agree: nobody does it like Tonic Sol-fa."
Here's a video off YouTube singing their most popular song Land of 1000 Dances (according to iTunes).  Sorry if the quality isn't top notch, it was the best I could do.  Enjoy!  I personally LOVE a cappella (it's so hard to do so I'm so impressed when groups make a living doing this) so I can't wait!!!
