I heard Northern Harmony on Saturday evening and enjoyed them so much that I went to see them again last night. If unaccompanied, joyful, singing of songs from around the world are your bag then get to see them and here's a link to the remaining schedule of concerts.

If you've not heard them, then their description of "a hearty, full-throated straight-toned singing style with unorthodox voicing" just about sums it up.

Add to that the fact that they are generally young, enthusiastic and attractive and I can see why somebody last night was saying that one of their workshops had led to a whole new approach, and interest, in music in a particular school.

Go see 'em before they go home!

If you want to hang out with folks like that, look into Village Harmony, a series of camps for young folk, adults and combinations thereof where you get to sing together for a week or three, in Vermont, or far more exotic places, such as the Republic of Georgia, Italy, Bulgaria (can't spell for S--T) and such. I believe they have a website. I've cooked for and attended two camps and they are a blast, and the energy level is pretty good, almost like those Northern Harmony types.

Didn't a couple of Harmonettes come in 2nd place in the Prairie Home Companion People In (their) Twenties Talent Show a couple of weeks ago?
