Here’s a group that many people have heard on Bob & Tom. If you haven’t heard of them before, or don’t recognize the name, you may have heard what is probably one of their most famous songs: “Title of the Song.” They’re an extremely talented and funny a capella group. Much of their music is original, but even the songs you know are treated in a new way that is quite enjoyable (and often better than the original).
As of now they have three CDs out. Here’s a brief overview:
Bendy’s Law: Semi-serious and semi-funny, this album debuts the group and shows off their tremendous vocal talent. Favorite songs include: Liposuction, The Joy of Pickled Okra, Sittin’ on the Dock of the Bay, and Blue Moon
The Life and Time of Mike Fanning: This one’s more original, which is evidenced by songs that are funnier and sometimes a little off color. It’s comedy, yet great a capella close-harmony music. Favorite songs include: Title of the Song, Secret Asian Man, Saggy Diaper Blues, and Kingdom in the Sky.
Brontosaurus: Even raunchier and funnier than the last one. I’ve seen more reviews that talk about paying attention to who else is listening with you, since the songs can be more off color. Still, the vocal quality and talent is continually praised as much as that from the other albums. Favorite songs include: Another Irish Drinking Song, The Gates, and the Uncle Buford Mega-Mix.
