Straight No Chaser Announces Spring 2020 Tour Dates
By: Kaitlin Milligan Nov. 04, 2019
Chart-topping a cappella group Straight No Chaser today announced a new leg of their "Open Bar" tour in the spring of 2020.
Kicking off in Fresno, CA on March 27th at the Saroyan Theatre, the run hits the West and then East Coasts, wrapping in Worcester, MA on April 11th. Full dates are listed below, and additional dates will be announced soon.
The fall leg of the "Open Bar" tour kicked off at the end of October in Biloxi, MS, and continues for the next two months, making the leg's final stop on January 2nd at the Neal S. Blaisdell Center in Honolulu, HI.
In other news, on November 15th, Straight No Chaser will release the "Open Bar" EP, the first release on the group's newly-launched label imprint, SNC Records, through Warner Music Group's Arts Music division. The EP will include the group's take on Semisonic's end-of-night anthem "Closing Time," along with other beloved bar-themed songs of the last few decades, including "Take Me Home Tonight" made famous by the late Eddie Money, "Tennessee Whiskey," recently covered by Chris Stapleton, Dan + Shay's "Tequila," and Smash Mouth's "All Star."
After capturing the attention of millions across the country, Straight No Chaser's version of "The 12 Days of Christmas" - interpolating Toto's "Africa" - caught the attention of Atlantic Records Chairman & CEO Craig Kallman, who promptly signed the Indiana-based a cappella group. They went on to release two chart-topping holiday albums, Holiday Spirits and Christmas Cheers, both of which are now certified gold by the RIAA. The extraordinary decade that followed has seen the group amass album sales in excess of 1.6 million in the U.S. alone and more than 1 million in ticket sales, along with more than 100 million YouTube views thus far. Now with the launch of SNC Records through Warner Music Group's Arts Music, Straight No Chaser will continue to focus on holiday music as well as developing artists who boast unique vocal stylings, giving others the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that came to them more than a decade ago.
