Chapter 6

On Monday night, I went to the windy University of Wisconsin - Green Bay campus to watch a fantastic a cappella group live in action. I had seen Chapter 6 a number of years ago when they sang at UW - Stevens Point. They were just as amazing the second time around.

With crowd pleasing favorites like their "Wizard of Oz" medley/storytelling, "Change the World," and "Eleanor Rigby," it's easy to see why this group has been going strong for twelve years. Arranger and live sound producer Mark Grizzard joins the guys on stage for an autobiographical piece he wrote called "7th wheel." It's a hilarious musical look into the guy behind the guys on stage. My personal favorite is "Pinball Number Count" which any die-hard Sesame Street fan, such as myself, would recognize in a heartbeat.  

On their latest album, With the Windows Down, the group nails a fantastic version of Coldplay's "Clocks," as well as croons their way through another Grizzard original, "There I Go."

As charismatic as they are vocally talented, these guys are worthy of your time if they come your way performing, and worth your money. So visit their site, buy a CD, and support musicians through this economic hardship.
