Originally formed a dozen years ago while students together at Indiana University, the a cappella group has reassembled and reemerged after their video for 'The 12 Days of Christmas' became a phenomenon with almost 8 million views on YouTube. In an era when so much pop music is the product of digital processing and vocal pro-tooling, Straight No Chaser is the real deal- the captivating sound of ten unadulterated human voices coming together to make extraordinary music that is moving people in a fundamental sense...and with a sense of humor.

Review of Holiday Spirits by Straight No Chaser:
Very pleased with the CD, however the CD case came broken in the mail, which I was displeased about.
Straight No Chaser:
I bought this CD for my mother who is a retired high school choir director. She is also a graduate of the Indidana University School of Music so she especially loved the a cappella group! This is a great CD of Christmas music!
Straight No Chaser:
They are a wonderfull group. I love to listen to them all year long. I cant wait for there next album.
Nice Addition to the Christmas Rotation:
Like most, I heard their rendition of "The 12 days of Christmas" and was hooked. The rest of the album is good, but doesn't blow your socks off. The 12 days is definitely the best cut, the remainder is simply nice Holiday background music. Much as I like supporting these guys, I would buy the MP3 of the 12 Days if I did it again.
