Bluecoats 2017 Ballad „Grow Till Tall“ FULLY A CAPPELLA | JMB Music

The Bluecoats 2017 Ballad from their iconic show ,,Jagged Line“.
I LOVE this ballad! When I first saw a clip from this Ballad I immediately knew that I wanted to turn it into an a cappella version. And to be honest, I think this ballad sounds way better without percussion. Just the pure harmonies, like in some of the practice clips online.
I tried putting a lot of efforts into the visuals by trying to make a fairly accurate outfit and recreating the iconic jagged line that's on the field as the background for my video. I also tried a slightly more dynamic video edit with switching frames this time around. I hope you like this style! Let me know what you think in the comments below!

[@davidrock5887]

why is nobody talking about the fact that he sustained a background vocal in falsetto for 21 seconds straight in the start

[@jmbmusic1]

Hahaha, well, apparently that’s not impressive enough for the people ;) Maybe they would comment, if I held the note through the entirety of that first section, but that would’ve just been impossible for me 😅

You now definitely have to do hymn of acxiom from tilt(bluecoats 2014). That and grow till tall are my favorite ballads no questions asked.

how did he run down the stairs without tripping

[@Catholic17]

@jacksonhall3151 That's what I told him. After finals, we met up, and I said, " How in the world did you not fall down the stairs "?

[@AugistBear]

Are those real overtones at the end or did you edit it in?? I can't tell on my speakers

[@jmbmusic1]

@@AugistBear The highest note that I‘ve actually sung here is the Eb6 at the end. Everything that you might hear above would indeed be overtones created by the harmonies below. No overtones artificially enhanced or added.

Is that a low B-flat at around 0:58? 🥲

Exactly, a B-flat 1! Later on in the song there are actually even lower notes. You need good headphones for them ;)
