Restless Vocal Band
We have a soft spot in our hearts for Restless Vocal Band - they're such fun, warm, wonderful people, and we had a great time talking with them in the mobile studio. We talked about where they've been, where they're going, and how they're spending their time these days. They also sang us some of their current music!

Double Date Quartet
Particularly in the United States, we tend to associate barbershop quartets with sing-gendered groups. But there's a developing tradition of mixed barbershop quartets, and Double Date is an excellent example. We talk about that with them, along with their history and sound, and hear them sing some tunes for us. Recorded in 2016.
