America's Premier Doo-Wop Group

April 8, 2005 - 8:00 p.m.
TAMU-CC Performing Arts Center
“The Alley Cats are a perfect
blend of musical talent and comic timing. Their interaction
with audiences combined with their spontaneous |
|
 |
humor makes each show refreshing
and exciting. Royce, Juan, Mando, and Sean never miss a beat
as they bring their own contemporary style to the great songs
of the 50s and 60s. Together, their freshness and talent make
them truly the Cat's meow! Tight harmonies, universal humor,
and unbelievable a cappella energy have made The Alley Cats
‘America's Premier Doo-Wop Group.’” (Source:

We are proud to present The Alley Cats in our Inaugural Concert
Series to showcase their exceptional a cappella voices in the
acoustically state-of-the-art Performing Arts Center at Texas
A&M University-Corpus Christi. The sound design elements

best in an acoustic performance of this kind.

and directs a rigorous, sequential chamber music curriculum
that integrates intensive musical instruction with training

The group continues to build on its reputation for imaginative,
spontaneous music making that the Washington Post calls "emotionally
high charged but never out of control."
