BARBOURSVILLE - Under the hot Saturday morning sun, a group of men gathered at the RiteAid in Barboursville to wash cars and sing.
Washing cars and singing usually don't go together, but they did, June 7, when members of the ThunderTones Chorus, the Huntington Tri-State Chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society, gathered for their Second Annual Singing Carwash fundraiser.

I have always hated singing. I was introduced to it as the son of two concert pianists, trained at Juilliard and winners of international competitions, one of whom eventually became a voice and choir teacher (along with international baccalaureate music theory/history and other subjects).

Entertainment legend XRP—an a cappella group composed of four former Rockapella members—announced it would make its first major appearance in 20 years on August 23 at A Cappellastock in Ogden, UT. A Cappellastock, celebrating its fifth anniversary, is the world’s premier, one-night a cappella music event.
XRP’s members, considered by many to be the kings of contemporary a cappella music, have released award-winning albums and performed concerts around the world, and were featured by Spike Lee in a highly acclaimed documentary on a cappella music. Rockapella is remembered for their work for Folgers, Almond Joy and the hit program Where In The World Is Carmen San Diego. This is XRP’s last scheduled performance together.
