This is from my alma mater:
The Octaves, University of Richmond's Men's A Cappella Group, Nominated for AwardsI was one of the founding members. It is so reassuring to see them doing so well. Posted by tripp at April 10, 2006 03:53 PMThe Octaves, the University of Richmond's men's a cappella group, was nominated this year for two Contemporary A Cappella Recording Awards by the Contemporary A Cappella Society. The group's CD "Corner Pocket" was nominated for best male collegiate album, and one of the cuts, "For Me This Is Heaven," was nominated for best male collegiate song. "For Me This Is Heaven" also was chosen for "The Top Shelf A Cappella Compilation," a CD that was released by CASA last month. The compilation includes songs from a cappella groups from 10 universities across the nation. The Octaves were founded in 1990, and they have performed for audiences from Maine to Florida. "Corner Pocket" is their seventh album.
