As you may know, I joined the Accidentals again this spring for a chance to compete in the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella (ICCAs).  We competed in a sold-out Quarterfinal show in Athens in February and won first place.  We then moved on to another sold-out Semifinal competition in Greensboro, NC last month.  We got first place there as well!  The Accidentals, in 36 years, have never made it past semifinals.  But this year we've made it to the International Finals in New York City to compete against the 8 best collegiate a cappella groups in the world!

Below are a few pictures from this year, and videos will come soon!
 
 

Some of my closest a cappella friends and I got together in Washington, DC to record a song for Ben Folds' a cappella album competition.  We didn't win, but we had the time of our lives recording and reuniting for the weekend!  That's me in the middle with the headphones on, beatboxing and singing.

Here's a recording of us singing Cupid's Chokehold, by the Gym Class Heroes.  I'm the guy rapping!

This a recording of Josh Groban's "Lullaby" that I sang on while I was in the Accidentals.
 
 

This is me singing our own version of Bill Withers' Aint No Sunshine When She's Gone (arranged by my dear friend Yannick Morgan).  It was pretty early in the morning, so don't judge me!  Oh and somehow this video has over 7,000 views on YouTube!

 
 

So...I had a 'rap' solo when I was in the group.  Haha!  And somehow this video, though our performance really isn't that good, got over 44,000 views on YouTube!

 
 

We always did have a problem counting...  Had so much fun singing this song!

My good friend Yannick Morgan arranged this version of the classic Bill Withers tune, Ain't No Sunshine.  I sing on this and for performances I usually beatboxed for it as well.

Yannick Morgan arranged this song as well.  The soloists (rapping) in order are Taylor Gray, myself, and Kirby Duncan.  The trio for the chorus is Tyrus Eaves, Myers Boicourt, and Darren Bryson.
