NATURALLY 7 – Not a cappella, VOCAL PLAY

So today I decided to give a shout out to a musical group called NATURALLY 7. The members include: Roger and Warren Thomas, my uncle Garfield Buckley, Rod Eldridge, Dwight Stewart, Jamal Reed, and Armand “Hops” Hutton.

Many people say that Naturally 7 is an a cappella group, but they’re not. They created and practice the art of vocal play. What is the difference between Vocal Play and a cappella? A cappella is defined as singing without instruments. Vocal Play is singing AS instruments, and BECOMING an instrument with the voice.

Everything you hear (with the exception of clapping in “Wall of Sound”) is coming from the human voice. Amazing right? And PLEASE believe me, there are NO INSTRUMENTS USED. If anyone knows that, I do.

The group is huge in Europe but they are really trying to make a breakthrough in the United States so please check them out.

This is N7 on a subway in Paris singing “Feel It (In The Air Tonight)”…I threw this in there just to prove they sound amazing no matter where they are because all they need is their voices.

Here is their latest music video called “Wall of Sound”

Oh and just for the record…this video is pretty sweet too, it shows how they break it down. You might need your headphones for this one.

So, what do you think?
