March Madness!!! ICCA!!!

Happy March, Y'all!!!

Can you tell that March is pretty much one of my favorite months out of the whole year? March is when winter finally goes away and the warm weather comes in. March is when you get to dye your food and drinks green and no one cares. March is when....

ICCA IS IN FULL BLOOM!!!!!!   (<- nerd alert)

Can I just tell you that I LOOOOVVE ICCA? Ask my husband. I'm at my computer every.single.night. I stalk. Yes, I youtube every night. Why? It's ICCA SEASON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, let me just say that there are some fantastical groups coming out of every region this year. I can't wait to see who ends up in the finals so I can stalk them congratulate them on their hard work!

I thought I would post a few of my favorite ICCA vids that I was able to locate out on the interwebs. If you have a video/group that you think was amazing, PLEASE PLEASE comment below with the video link. We can be stalkers together!

I know I'm an all-female a cappella groupie, but I have to give credit to All Night Yahtzee. They are always solid. ALWAYS. And they sure do know how to do a live performance. Love 'em.

Okay, this song is overdone, as in every a cappella group has sung this song. BUT The Beat takes it to another level with this hauntingly beautiful rendition of "Hallelujah" with awesome dynamics. If you don't want to listen to the whole thing, at least skip to 3:02 and check out the 3 part harmony.

How could I not include an all-female group. ASU Pitchforks sing a virtually perfect version of Kimbra's "Settle Down," a tune who's original is almost a cappella in itself. I love this one! Best of all, you can tell they're having a great time on stage. Get 'em, ladies!

Oh yeah, did I mention my March Madness Special?!?  Just for the month of March, if your group purchases 1 custom arrangement, you get a catalog arrangement of your choosing for FREE!!!! Get with your group to pick out a custom song you'd like me to arrange for you, then check out the website (http://www.lsarrangements.com/) and pick out a catalog arrangement to get started on. Can't wait to see how many groups take advantage of this awesome deal!
