In the fall semester of 2008, Carrie’s friend Brady came over. They were talking about A’ cappella and Carrie mentioned that I loved it. She called me out and the three of us listened to music for over 2 hours. I told Brady about my list and how I thought it would be awesome to create a group at BYU-Idaho. He said, “Well, why don’t you?” I was kind of shocked by his response. What was holding me back? Brady happened to be the lowest and most talented bass I could have hoped for. He said he would be in the group and find people for it. It was a long process getting it started but we did and performed for the nursing home Christmas party at the end of the semester. The group continued on into the winter semester as well. We were a lot better and performed a couple more times. The name “My A’ cappella” stuck and the group is still in operation even though I am not there.

This is when we sang at Nashville nights. We got a standing ovation and an encore. We were then voted to sing at Best of Show and it was awesome.
This was the group last winter with Dave and Cory as the new additions. Yes, if you were wondering, the green was my idea!
