Straight No Chaser to Perform at the Gaillard Center in November
Chart-topping a cappella group Straight No Chaser will celebrate their 25th anniversary in 2022 with a fall tour and their third PBS special airing nationwide starting in June. Straight No Chaser stops at the Charleston Gaillard Center on Sunday, November 13th, 2022 at 4 pm.
Formed during the 1996-1997 school year at Indiana University, Straight No Chaser has gone on to sell more than three million albums worldwide, garner more than a billion streams, and sell more than 1.5 million concert tickets worldwide.
“When we started Straight No Chaser as college kids at Indiana University, we never imagined that 25 years later, we’d have two albums certified gold and tour dates around the world,” said group member Walter Chase. “What a ride it has been. It has literally been a dream come true.”
In commemoration of “The 25th Anniversary Celebration,” PBS stations nationwide will air “Straight No Chaser: The 25th Anniversary Celebration,” starting this June. The concert, filmed at the Murat Theatre at Old National Center in Indianapolis in 2019 where the group has sold out 27 shows, features the nine group members performing classics like “Proud Mary,” “Lean on Me,” and “Twistin,’” as well as pop mash-ups, like “Uptown Funk/Thriller.”
This fall, Straight No Chaser will release a physical version of last year’s deluxe edition of Social Christmasing, which featured an original, “Christmas Show,” written by group member Mike Luginbill and “Celebrate Me Home,” featuring Kenny Loggins, in addition to the album’s original tracklist which included their signature twist on Christmas classics like “Silver Bells” and “Frosty The Snowman,” five new original songs, and a hopeful take on the Counting Crows classic “A Long December.”
Tickets go on sale Friday, May 6th at 10 am at gaillardcenter.org. Gaillard Center Members receive presale access. To become a Member, contact the Advancement Office at emilhous@gaillardfoundation.
