A Capella groups are not only exclusive to movies and, in fact, Canisius has one of their own, under the name CrescenDON’Ts – more familiarly, under the name “DONT’S.” This one is not being led by Anna Kendrick, but by senior McKenzie Fuller and many other talented returning members.
Last Saturday, the club hosted a mixer event with four other local acapella groups from assorted local universities. They all gathered in the Palisano basement and initially, its sole purpose was for people with similar interests, making music with their mouths, to gather and make connections. Later though, they all performed songs from their concert lineups from this semester.
DONT’s secretary, Lio Salazar said, “I'm really happy that we were able to pull this mixer off because I love making new friends, but it was also really nice to see even our shyer members branching out and interacting with our guests.”
Their show has a collection of solo and group performances ranging from “Forget You” by CeeLo Green to “Stand by Me” by Ben E. King. This semester, CrescenDON’Ts will be hosting their fall showcase, Evergreen, on Saturday Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. in the Montante Cultural Center.
