Straight No Chaser's new release "SIX PACK: VOLUME 3" follows their 2016 "I'LL HAVE ANOTHER...CHRISTMAS ALBUM," the world famous a cappella group's sixth full-length release and first full-length holiday release in seven years. Widely beloved for their trademark takes on Yuletide favorites, Straight No Chaser made their now classic debut with 2008's "HOLIDAY SPIRITS," followed in the next year by "CHRISTMAS CHEERS." Both albums reached the top of the holiday charts at Amazon and the iTunes Store and are now certified gold by the RIAA. Like the preceding "SIX PACK" and "SIX PACK: VOLUME 2," the new EP continues Straight No Chaser's long history of bringing their unique touch and inimitable vocal style to a stunning range of contemporary standards. Their most recent non-holiday release, 2015's "THE NEW OLD FASHIONED," saw the renowned group putting their matchless touch upon songs spanning The Weeknd and Radiohead to Bob Dylan and Atlantic labelmate Charlie Puth.

"SIX PACK: VOLUME 3" sees the a cappella group cracking open a number of contemporary pop hits and rock classics, including Bruno Mars' blockbuster "That's What I Like." The track's official video - recently hailed by Billboard as "cheeky" and "playful" -- is streaming now at the group's official YouTube channel. "SIX PACK: VOLUME 3" is further highlighted by "Sweet Dreams/HandClap Medley" - Straight No Chaser's one-of-a-kind mash-up of Eurythmics' "Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)" and Fitz and the Tantrums' "HandClap" - as well their show-stopping "Beyoncé Medley" (see attached tracklisting).
