New obsession = "The Sing-Off"
I love all times of music, so anytime I hear of a music based show I have to tune in. Tonight marked the premier of "The Sing-Off" on NBC. The competition show pits eight singing groups against each other singing a cappella. The first night of the four-night competition which features judges Ben Folds Five front-man Ben Folds, Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger and Shawn Stockman of Boys II Men saw two of the eight groups get eliminated.
Night two saw the judges eliminating Noteworthy, a nine-voice female ensemble from Provo, Utah. While all the groups are talented I really thought Noteworthy would make it farther along.
It is hard to pick just one favorite. But there are two groups that I think it is going to come down to: Nota, an all-male sextet from Puerto Rico who have done an amazing job at putting their own spin and adding a little Latin flair to their performances and Beelzebubs, an all-male group of 12 who are by far the most theatrical group.
With a cappella it all comes down to the voice, so it is refreshing to see performances that simply rely on talent.
