Southern Gentlemen EP

Southern Gentlemen EP

Who wouldn’t like to have a portable all-male a cappella group available to serenade at all times? The self-titled SO Gents (from SMU’s resident all-male a cappella group, the Southern Gentlemen) is now available on iTunes, makes this possible.

After much demand, Southern Gentlemen’s debut EP delivers five songs of nonstop entertainment and vibrant covers. The EP includes such fan favorites as “I Won’t Give Up” and “Jessie’s Mom.”

Longtime fans and newcomers alike will appreciate the smooth transitions and clarity of the recording. While their musical style is similar to those found on TV shows such as Glee, these Southern Gents go above and beyond, while staying true to their a cappella roots. The only instruments used within the recordings are their voices, just like their live shows. Their commitment to diverse music genres and arrangements are also starkly apparent as one moves through the album. Starting with a sweet Disney tune, “Trashin’ the Camp,” it quickly progresses to a bouncy cover of R. Kelly’s “Ignition.”

No matter what the Southern Gentlemen decide to cover, it results in fun and easy listening.

SMU students, staff and alumni who are looking for feel good music to bring a smile to their faces should definitely download.
