Family A Cappella Groups
For the uninitiated, it can be difficult to understand why people love a cappella. Heck, even for those of us who do actively enjoy it, it can be difficult to put into words why we enjoy this art form so. While we’ll never have a truly comprehensive list of everything cool about a cappella, 200 Reasons to Love A Cappella is our best attempt at assembling a list of what makes it great.
Reason #95: Family A Cappella Groups
Members of a cappella groups often refer to their groupmates as family. There are those groups that take this to a whole ‘nother level, though—groups that are literal, biological and legal relations. Whether it’s the Fannin Family of Sing-Off, the California-based barbershop quartet My Three Sons, or any of a number less-known or less public outfits, intra-familial a cappella groups mark one of the most distinctive, interesting, and intimate make ups of a cappella groups possible.
Family a cappella groups celebrate the propinquity of a close family, provide the family a unique opportunity to collaborate and provide a real treasure for not just the family, but the surrounding community to drink in as a real inspiration and source of aural beauty.
I love it!
