New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) presents Straight No Chaser. Celebrate the holidays with a sparkling evening of hits and Yuletide favorites, delivered with polish and a sly sense of humor by this all-male a cappella sensation. If the phrase all-male a cappella group conjures up an image of students in blue blazers, ties, and khakis singing traditional college songs on ivied campuses think again.

These polished vocalists have emerged as a pop phenomenon, with a massive fanbase, numerous national television appearances (including their PBS specials, Live from New York and Songs of the Decades), and proven success in the recording studio with a string of CD releases.
