That suit game though...the more you look, the better it gets. The Most Happy Fellows would be proud!

[@TheBobbyONeill]

I was admiring the suits at the start, but it wasn't until the end when I noticed the ruby red shoes that I realized they were each wearing a suit to represent the characters from the Wizard of Oz.

[@4partharmony208]

@TheBobbyONeill I think my favorite detail is the straw pocket square and cuffs on the tenor

[@noplace3571]

These guys and the NF4 are the groups that got me interested in barbershop, they’re just so good 😭

[@mmmbetter55]

Check out Signature too! Those boys send me to the moon

[@ofirnadel]

And lemon squeezey too!

[@cmalh]

And forefront!

[@apelz911]

Someones gotta bring up the suits- theyre so good for this set. On top of the performance, this set is one for the history books. Very refreshing to hear a new arrangement of this staple

[@kennethjames1003]

It’s the scarecrow Dorthy Tin Man and the cowardly lion

[@EthanFrahm]

This is genuinely one of the greatest barbershop performances I have seen in my entire life. The barbershop IQ both in this arrangement and those performing it is unlike anything I've heard in years, absolutely mind boggling. I was already really into 3.5 Men after the Quarterfinals, but this set, and especially this performance, has turned me into a devoted fan for life. Unbelievably amazing.

[@tomcuran8354]

im calling it gold next year. (knock on wood) Absolutely immaculate group!!

[@superduty4823]

@@tomcuran8354 Its gotta be LS for me next year, they just have to finally win. Having said that if 3.5 men win i wouldnt be mad at all, they are that good

[@CatholicQuartet]

Also a good pick, but I think they'll get another top three@@superduty4823

[@thatoneguywhoisntme]

Tony is about to collect his 5th gold! If not this summer, it will be next.

[@Charlie-mr9cn]

Tinfoil guy literally give me shivers man. What a voice.

[@Charlie-mr9cn]

Oh wait I just realised their suits are wizard of oz themed. That's sick.

[@oliverdelica2289]

@@Charlie-mr9cn Haha I realized that too

[@baegelandcheese4431]

Oh! theyre the Wizard of Oz themed! Thats so sweet

[@NoHomerS]

I didn't realize that until you said that!😮

[@CatholicQuartet]

One of the best basses I've never heard!

[@TylerMire]

The resonance from the bass. Wow

[@mahoganyflagpole6877]

I loved every song they did in contest, but this one was my favorite! They all sing with such incredible tenderness! 0:56-1:20 is an absolute masterclass of ballad singing, the entrance at 3:47 is serene, Josh's post at 4:39 is absolutely beautiful, etc. This quartet is doing some incredible things and this is only their first year competing!

[@GuardianEarl]

These fellas sing with an incredible resonance. Absolutely top notch and that is one rockstar lead.

[@gloriouslyimperfect]

Love seeing the third generation barbershop doing his dad proud - WHILE singing with his dad. Go JoJo! My new favorite quartet for sure - you all were amazing .. cant wait to see how you do next year!

[@EthanFrahm]

1:02 for one of the greatest baritone tiddlies of all time.

[@mahoganyflagpole6877]

Tony Derosa showing why he's still a world class baritone!

[@leonardjenkins7363]

There’s GOLD IN THEIR VERY NEAR FUTURE.

[@TipsyRobot]

This is one of the most musical quartets of all time. So excited for their future. This set will go down in history.

[@ケイリakaケモイ]

Okay what the hell tell me these guys won that was AMAZING. What a perfect performance, and that arrangement is killer too.

[@saraalhashimi2650]

they got 4th unfortunately. But I'm rooting for them next year!

[@HowieGordonMusic]

Chris Keough is just insaneeeeee

[@adoniascarloscarriel1384]

Yeah great arrengment great bass great tenor great lead great baritone...what harmony

[@MSA03]

This performance is too good for this earth

[@ronjames-music]

Incredible arrangement and performance!

[@davec727]

3:33 THAT OCTAVE

[@daveluttinen2547]

This song is a clinic to show that emotional impact has nothing to do with excessive volume. That tag is perfect!

[@taruheizu]

Such a perfect sound

[@CatholicQuartet]

Wow! The more I listen to this song, the more I hear how amazing this performance truly is!

[@adoniascarloscarriel1384]

Wondeful version (that arr.!) great quartet!!!

[@strongbad635]

This was my absolute favorite performance of the entire convention! And one of my favorites of all time!

[@saraalhashimi2650]

One of my favourites of the contest! ❤

[@hugolandio]

This is genuinely one of the greatest barbershop performances I have seen in my entire life.

[@thesubwoofer3519]

Chris Keough ftw!

[@brycenbohl5657]

The first somewhere had me REWINDING!!! So good, so juicy and I just gobbled that up. Excellent all around.

[@z.l.burington1183]

What, and these 3.5 men did not win? How is that even possible?? Who was better than this???? Made me cry, every single chord was so perfect.

[@speedylinguine]

Midtown broke 2 records in this contest, it’s hard to beat that

[@tdvorak9987]

Watching this live just felt so different. Remarkable.

[@jerrodfrederking971]

I went and watched the other performances for the groups above this one. Those judges were wrong! This is the best performance and should have won gold IMO!! Looking forward to following this group!! Thanks for the music!

[@johngrider737]

Tears, every time I listen to this.

[@barbaragarton2309]

Unbelieveably Beautiful ! Loved the blend and gorgeous arrangement. Great Costumes enhanced the performance ...Loved this !

[@suzannebenz8928]

BRAVO!!!

[@manojpadki]

OMG!!!

[@jeremiedayglider1690]

Wow control! Amazing! And, love the costumes. First thought: Dr. Who, Prom King, Space Man, and...Zoologist(?). Then, I got it! Their music is as clever and stylish as their wardrobe!

[@shuai6762]

so beautiful

[@davimose5569]

how is it so when Josh starts holding the note at 1:00 the tone and control is so damn perfect!?

[@doylerember9215]

What a performance.......rung every chord. A lot has to be said about the arrangements. Clay you've always been at the top of my list when it comes to arranging, but you outdid yourself on everything this quartet sang. Just Wow!

[@CatholicQuartet]

The laughing at 2:25 is because of the bass jump and the immediate ring afterwards of all four voices. These guys know how to lock in!

[@steveziki]

Very Clay Hine'ish touch there.

[@johndavidkonold9671]

Absolutely LOVED it!!!

[@jonathan_morgan_st]

damn that bassists resonance is out of this world

[@gailsfoodandstuff]

omg!! 😮 wowza!!!!

Just wow! That tag

[@WilliamAiken]

4:49 HOLY 5th!!!

[@toddbpiofia]

What is crazy is this isn't even there primary singing style!! All of them are performers for Disney and not Barbershop style. SO GOOD !!!! GREAT performance !!! should have won GOLD !!!

[@vondanewsome]

Transcendent!!❤

These guys are really good

[@karlforster4907]

Awesome!

The overtones at 1:16 OMG

2:36 Obsessed...

[@eboone]

4:10 insane overtone

[@gailsfoodandstuff]

at 3:52 , you really could have heard a pin drop!

[@rachelwallisky1429]

Is 1:59 an actual note or an OVERTONE because HOLY SMOKES

[@jtrench100]

Dynamic

[@djhill624]

impressive singing

[@PhilGeissler]

Geez it took me a moment to figure out the outfits match the Wizard of Oz characters, lol!

[@Charlie-mr9cn]

Question for someone who doesn't follow barbershop outside of NF4. The guy on the right, he was in Main Street right? What happened to them or did he leave?

[@lucimusicPH]

They already won back in 2017, and they cannot compete again, since it's the rules, but it's fine to compete by forming a new quartet with different members, sometimes completely different members!

[@Charlie-mr9cn]

@@lucimusicPH Oh wow. That seems harsh from someone not in this world. Surely that breaks up quartets. I'd be gutted if NF4 had to disband because they're the best aha.

[@superduty4823]

@@Charlie-mr9cn they dont have to "disband" but just cant compete anymore :)

[@lucimusicPH]

@@Charlie-mr9cn There's nothing to worry about, they won't disband after winning the competition, or forming a new one. They just can't compete anymore, but they still perform!

[@BeyondOrdinary]

It's worth noting that this is the 5th Quartet that Tony DeRosa has got to the 10 in. The previous 4 all won gold. (Somebody correct me if he's been in more)

[@Billybotiefflo]

Anyone notice the laughing at 2:32?

[@TreyBruceable]

It’s because in the live performance the camera zoomed in on the lead’s ruby slippers.

[@ctowen5222]

If this was the first barbershop tag I’d ever heard, I would not have a 30 yr BHS card.

[@PsychologyCheckup]

That tag…

[@EricGrayTech]

Killer.
