Straight, No Chaser

Saturday, January 3:
Straight, No Chaser. If the phrase “male a cappella group” conjures up an image of students in blue blazers, ties, and khakis singing traditional college songs on ivy league campuses, think again. These men are neither straight-laced nor straight-faced, but neither are they vaudeville-style kitsch. They have emerged as a phenomenon with a massive fan base, numerous national TV appearances, and proven success with CD releases. Enjoy the captivating sound of ten unadulterated human voices coming together to make extraordinary music that is moving people in a fundamental sense, and with a sense of humor. An unforgettable live act. Hawai`i Theatre Center, 1130 Bethel St., Honolulu. 8 p.m. For tickets and information call (808) 528-5535 or visit www.hawaiitheatre.com.
