In 2013, the quartet won the International Collegiate Barbershop Quartet Contest and the Far Western District Quartet Contest, and became 5th place international bronze medalists in the 2024 quartet contest. Over the years they have developed a reputation not only for their fine singing and showmanship, but also for their work and involvement in youth outreach as clinicians and educators, leading countless workshops for young singers around the country. With millions of views on their YouTube performances, they are one of the most viewed barbershop quartets in the world, introducing the artform to countless young singers. Entertaining audiences is their priority, and they can’t wait to entertain YOU. They are Jackson, Joey, Jake, and Marcus: The Newfangled Four!
