-Scholastic competition season is right around the corner, and the deadline to apply for Varsity Vocals' International Championships of Collegiate and High School A Cappella (ICCA and ICHSA, respectively) is coming up in just a little over two weeks. Groups that wish to compete need to submit their materials so they arrive at Varsity Vocals Headquarers in Chicago by November 1. You can learn more about the competition and how to apply here.

-Interested in what's going on in the world of collegiate a cappella across the pond? Mark Gregory and friends have you covered over at The UK University A Cappella Blog, a new site launched over the summer.

-Sonos, the group most recently eliminated from The Sing-Off and the topic of much debate in a cappella circles, participated in an interesting interview with Digital Spy earlier this week in which they discuss their famous/infamous use of pedals, the thought process behind the group's reimagining of "I Want You Back" and backstage interactions with the judges.
