Congrats to Mosaic!

Monday, December 17th, 2007

We’d like to congratulate Mosaic for winning the CBS Early Show A Cappella Quest competition hosted by Boyz II Men. This morning, Boyz II Men announced the winning group live on the Early Show. Even though we didn’t win, we were still extremely excited to have been selected as a Top 5 finalist. It was also quite an experience being critiqued by Boyz II Men. Ryan’s wounds will heal in a few days once he realizes that Boyz II Men critiqued him - Ryan Sterling - live, in front of a ton of households across America. It’s still publicity, right?

Congratulations also to Hookslide, BoRhap and On Call for making it to the Top 5 as well.

Check out what Boyz II Men had to say about us:

Overboard is in the Top 5 on CBS!

Friday, December 14th, 2007

We’re thrilled to announce that Overboard was selected as a Top 5 Finalist among the hundreds who submitted videos to the CBS Early Show’s Boyz II Men A Cappella Quest!

The Top 5 was announced at 8am on Friday, December 14th. Tune in to the Early Show on Monday, December 15th when the winning group is announced live by the members of Boyz II Men.

We’re very excited about this opportunity and are thankful and honored to have gotten this far in the competition. We’ll be watching the Early Show Monday morning, fingers crossed and hope you’ll do the same. Thank you very much for your support!

Overboard enters the CBS Early Show A Cappella Quest

Thursday, November 15th, 2007

We recently submitted our entry into the Boyz II Men A Cappella Quest competition on The Early Show on CBS. In the hopes of finding “the next great a cappella group,” they have asked for video submissions; so, we put forth our best effort and recorded two songs at practice one night - Crazy and Ain’t No Sunshine. We felt Ain’t No Sunshine captured us better as a group, so we sent in that video. You can see our entry at the bottom of this post; you can also check out our runner-up video on YouTube.

We should find out in the next couple of weeks whether or not we made it as a Top 5 finalist in the competition.

Enjoy your rendition of the Bill Wither’s Favorite, Ain’t No Sunshine!
