ATCO/Atlantic recording group Straight No Chaser has revealed details of its new album. "With A Twist" arrives in stores and at all online retailers on April 13th. "With A Twist" sees the acclaimed a cappella group bringing its extraordinary vocal sound and inimitable musical approach to a wide range of pop favorites (see attached tracklisting). The album features delightfully different renditions of modern classics like Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Under The Bridge," Coldplay's "Fix You," Crowded House's "Don't Dream It's Over," and Oasis' "Wonderwall." What's more, "WITH A TWIST" is highlighted by a stellar take on Barry Manilow's "One Voice," featuring guest vocals from Manilow himself.
In anticipation of the release of "With A Twist," SNC will hold a live web chat with their fans on Monday, March 8 at 8 PM Eastern Standard Time on www.sncmusic.com where they will perform selections from the new album.
The group will herald the release of "With A Twist" with an eagerly awaited US tour. The trek will kick off with a sold out two-night stand at Boulder, Colorado's Boulder Theater on April 5th and 6th and traverse the country through mid-May (see attached itinerary). The tour initially went on sale in mid-December and immediately sold out in several cities including Boulder, CO; Collingswood, NJ; and York, Pittsburgh, and Stroudsburg, PA. In response to the amazing demand, venue sizes were increased and additional shows were added in over a dozen cities. Founding member Dan Ponce notes "We have a great time on stage together, and it thrills us to the see the audience having as much fun as we are."
