Straight No Chaser

Congratulations to Straight No Chaser for advancing to the finals of the 2005 International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella. The pictures above were taken during the groups’ performance on Saturday, April 30, 2005 at the Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall in New York City.

Founded in 1996, the Alumni Association has sponsored the group throughout their existence. This partnership has included live performances at IU Alumni Association events around the country.

HISTORY
Dan Ponce, a member of the Singing Hoosiers, had the idea to assemble a men's a cappella group. He recruited some friends from the choir, and the founding members of Straight No Chaser began their quest. The group put on their first performance in October, 1996 at the Indiana University Dance Marathon.

Straight No Chaser has gone on to perform at universities and auditoriums all across the nation spreading their incredible blend of talent with their exciting stage presence. In addition to their alumni shows and private performances, the group packs the house at their two annual shows: the Winter Concert at the Buskirk Chumley Theater in Bloomington, Indiana and the Spring Concert at the Indiana University Auditorium.
