We wanted to pop back in to share this video of us singing at Birdland in NYC last night for Harmony on Broadway! Jake Odmark whipped up this arrangement for us, and he and Brian Cali put together this show of absolutely amazing vocalists. We were absolutely floored to be a part of such an amazing event, and so honored to be the first people outside the original broadway cast to sing something from Pretty Woman: The Musical.
we went to Boston
This weekend we were up in Boston, competing in the 2019 Harmony Sweepstakes Regional! The competition was awesome, and everyone’s set was really great. In the end, we came home with a Best Vocal Percussion and a Best Original Arrangement for You’re Nobody Til Somebody Loves You, which means we’ve now won every individual award you can win at Harmony Sweepstakes. 😉
We had an awesome weekend meeting everyone and feeling the a cappella love, and felt like our performance went really well. Now we’re exhausted and onto the next thing!
You can check out our set below:
i’m in love with the shape of you
3 months ago, we competed in the New York regional competition of the Harmony Sweepstakes A Cappella Festival a man down and were honored to receive an Honorable Mention from the judges as well as the awards for Best Original Song and Best Vocal Percussion. Now that we’re back at full strength, we wanted to share that set with you, starting with “Shape of You” from Ed Sheeran!
say you won’t let go
Here’s a little pick-me-up for this rainy Thursday in NYC in the form of a tune by James Arthur we did for a proposal back in December. This is our version of Say You Won’t Let Go:
we won things!
Hey everyone!
We spent the last few weeks preparing for and competing in the 2017 New York Regional Harmony Sweepstakes Competition. We wrote an original song, did choreography for the first time EVER (note to self: we are not dancers,) and generally had an awesome time coming together to accomplish a rockin’ set.
In the end, we walked away with three awards: Best VP (Rizumik), Best Original Song and 4th Place!
Check out the video of ‘The Fall’ written and arranged by Melina and Caitlin.
the ed sheeran edition
in which all we sing is Ed Sheeran songs.
but actually, we did Thinking Out Loud for Debra and Taylor (congrats on your engagement!) and then he put out a new album, so we just had to cover Shape of You.
you are the best thing!
Happy New Year from all of us at Concrete! The holiday season brought us many gigs in the form of helping couples get engaged. We love being a part of such a special occasion (even if it is kind of nerve wracking!) So far, we have a 100% success rate.
Here’s Jason’s arrangement of You are the Best Thing opb Ray Lamontagne. Congrats, Corey and Kim!
rizumik’s a star, boy.
We’re finishing off this year with some new music and the introduction of our new beatboxer — Rizumik! We’re super excited to have him cause a) he’s pretty awesome and b) our sound just isn’t complete without beatboxing.
Here’s Lior’s arrangement of Starboy opb The Weeknd.
