The Kinsey Sicks does Dragapella
My buddy Karl introduced me to The Kinsey Sicks. He didn't have their music on his computer to play for me, but being a member of the Portland Gay Men's Chorus, he sang me a few bars of their rendition of The Rose by Bette Midler. I was laughing hysterically.
The group is a drag accapella group who sings parodies of well-known tunes with a unique spin on them. If you go to their website, you can listen to and download some samples, including the aforementioned The Rose, which is wonderful. I also highly recommend the I Wanna Be a Republican tune. Some of the lyrics might not be work-safe.
Their website says they will be performing in Louisville next month (date not set yet), so a small trip down might be in order.
Update: The Kinsey Sicks have been hired as the entertainment for the Beaux Arts Ball in Louisville on September 29th. It's a black tie fundraiser and at $140/ticket. It'd be nice to go, but I think I may just buy their DVD.
