If the phrase "male a cappella group" conjures up an image of students in blue blazers, ties, and khakis singing traditional college songs on ivied campuses... think again. Straight No Chaser (SNC) are neither strait-laced nor straight-faced, but neither are they vaudeville-style kitsch. They have emerged as a phenomenon with a massive fanbase and a long list of accomplishments including 2 RIAA Gold Certified albums, over 1.5 million concert tickets sold, over 1 billion streams on Pandora, and over 2 million albums sold worldwide. Straight No Chaser is the real deal, the captivating sound of nine unadulterated human voices coming together to make extraordinary music that is moving people in a fundamental sense... and with a sense of humor.

Straight No Chaser played at The Midland Theater this week and I was fortunate enough to see them for the 2nd time in 6 months. This time, I was in the 5th row and loved it even more! Their harmonies and arrangements of songs are amazing and they're so fun to watch! They look like they love every minute of what they do. I hope they release a new CD soon!
The show was TERRIFIC!!!! This is one of the most versatile groups --- talented groups --- and entertaining groups that I have seen. I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone that might be interested. They performed everything from a Lady GaGa medley to country music, to motown,, old sixties classics, GREAT, GREAT selection and something that almost everyone would like.
These guys are simply AMAZING!! An incredible group of talented, entertaining men . . . and just a down-right group of NICE GUYS!! Can't wait to see them in concert again! And I LOVE IT that they allow you to take all the pictures you want during the performance!! :)
We sat in the upper balcony in the sixth row...I wondered if that would be too far away to really enjoy the show, but other than not being able to see all the facial expressions, we thoroughly enjoyed the show. The guys all have awesome voices, and the harmony's just gives me chills. I loved the Lady Gaga tribute..it was hilarious, and the Madonna song, "Like a Prayer" nearly brought tears to my eyes, they sang it so beautifully. The concert was held in the historically gorgeous Midland theater in KC, Mo. which just added to the overall experience. They're dancing was great and often comical, the antics of some of the guys was very funny. The place was sold out, and the audience response was loud and enthusiastic for these very talented fellows. They came back out for the first encore of the Twelve days of Christmas, which I loved, and the second encore was sung without mikes, and the theaters was as quiet as a snowfall at night listening to these awesome voices. I thoroughly enjoyed the evening and would definitely want to come back to see them again, and recommend them to my friends!!
Amazing vocalists, plus they were very entertaining!
The performance was outstanding as we are big fans of Straight No Chaser! Unfortunately the seating in the venue was not good. See below.
Seeing SNC again this year was terrific. Will say we enjoyed the first show in KC better as the smoke and lights and such were a bit too much. The guys sounded wonderful and the new material was great. Can't wait for a new SNC CD!
Absolutely loved this event! These guys are even better in person than the event I had watched on PBS. Although the musical styles are totally different, I would put them equal to the show and musical quality of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra show I attended last winter (minus all of the lighting effects, or course).
This group connects with their audience, shows fun personality, and brings this form of music to a whole new realm. What fun they are!
Great show! The performance was outstanding and they are very funny too!
SNC is a group of incredibly talented musicians who are all very personable, as well. Not only do they amaze you with their singing, they also make the concert fun and a joy to attend! I certainly hope they come back to KC in the near future!!!!!!
This the second time for seeing Straight No Chaser. It was as good as the first time. Great show!
Entertaining, talented, they have it all, enjoyable for all ages!
A truly fantastic show! A must see for everyone. They cover every genre you could ever want to hear.
This was one of the best concerts I have been to. I would definietly recommend this group to everyone!
They are outstanding. I would attend again. The performance was super .
An outstanding performance! Their harmonies were right on. This is on group that I would definately see again.
This was my 2nd time seeing SNC in concert in KC. Both shows were absolutely awesome and each were different. The range of musical genres that they cover means there is something for all ages. I took my parents in their 60's and my tween aged boys and everyone had a fabulous time. The performance seemed flawless and amazed that there are no musical instruments involved. And they were funny and entertaining as well and really seemed to connect with the audience. Would DEFINATELY go again and see what they have in store for the next concert!
the group was very entertaining, the musis was great, the encores super
We really loved this concert! This group is extremely talented and they didn't just get up and sing. They had terrific choreography and they all had a great sense of humor. The music was GREAT!!!!
