[@michaelbelcher8805]

They perform all over the country. And still compete in the international competition every year in the hopes of getting 1st. In 5 years they went from 16th to 6th. So hopefully they can get it within another year or two

[@ZipplyZane]

And then they would be required to break up.

[@JBergmansson]

@@ZipplyZane What, isn't the rule just that they couldn't compete anymory if they placed first, but they could still tour?

[@ZipplyZane]

@@JBergmansson They can't control what they do outside of competition, of course. But, if any of them want to compete, they have to join a group without any of the other three. So all it takes is one singer choosing to compete, they'd be spending most of their time practicing and touring in their new group, and not really have time for NF4.

[@JBergmansson]

@@ZipplyZane None of the other three? Geez, that is a harsch rule.

[@didderjade]

Joey on washboard, Jake on double bass (or a string, a broom handle, and a bucket), Ryan on clogs, Jackson on...what? Spoons? Fiddle? Second washboard?

[@johnbiever4204]

I’m literally sitting here rewinding back to the beginning of their own rendition because it sounds so good.

[@derlangehansen3463]

joeys full voice third is pretty strong

[@amaridatrumpeter]

okay the end caught me. reason one is bc of how long Jackson held that note, reason two is how Joey’s voice stood out at the end, and three and when Ryan descended his voice when they were ending the song. Jake’s bass is just cool. I love the NewFangled Four❤

Jesus. Had to exhale real slow after that final chord. Amazing job, guys.

[@fleuphy]

The tag is the best i have ever heard NF4 sound. You only hear such perfect intonation in live performances from the best of the best. The pitch bend arrival into the chord at 10:45 was so perfectly timed by Joey, Jake, and Ryan that the first time I heard this i could do nothing but miserably fail at picking my jaw up off the floor. And Joey doing those last two notes in his chest voice was such a great choice and was pulled off so excellently. I don't think he's done it in any of their other publicly available performances, but it really elevates the tag in my opinion. I wish they performed this song with Marcus but I don't think they do (at least i haven't found any publicly available videos of them performing it with him).

To answer your 4 year old question (and anyone else who stumbles by later!), those are their Collegiate gold medals. They won the International Collegiate Barbershop Quartet Contest in 2013, only a year after they started singing as a quartet.

[@brianmchaney7473]

Anyone know why the audio of this performance feels so muted compared to the competition? Just different microphone?

[@stephenlepage]

That's an interesting question. The comp video from Jul 20, 2016 is at a higher sound level. Is that what you are referring to? Also, it was optiimised for amplification in mono with X/Y microphone pattern near to the performers, and requrired additional microphones to capture the audience reactions and mix them in for the recording. It also captures a sound that has been reinforced by foldback/monitor speakers. In my video, the microphones you see on the top of the stand (also in X/Y for amplification in mono) were not used for my recording. The second set of microphones on the stage are what you're listening through. They have larger diaphragms and are positioned in a simplified binaural pattern for optimal headphones compatibility, and were further away from the performers - capturing an ambient stereo sound that is more akin to what someone in the front row might experience live - including the room's acoustics and audience reactions. I didn't do any processing with a graphic equaliser either - it is exactly what the microphones heard. Pros and cons? Let me know what you think.

anyone else like their blend a bit more when joey is cheating the tenor part at the beginning? he’s taking the zimmerman and stenberg approach, which i sometimes prefer

[@eboone]

10:45 crazy intonation

[@justadam3186]

Not sure if this is exactly what happened, but at 8:16 Jake played... THAT THING on the pitch pipe. I have a theory that he used relative pitch to figure out the "tonal center" (more like.. atonal center) that Ryan was... orbiting around, lets put it that way, and at around 8:20 he looked for that general area on the pitch pipe and started playing THAT OTHER THING (8:22) which is obviously an imitation of Ryan, and a very good one at that!
