“Pop group with a twist” Business Casual, all five of whose members are tech workers in Silicon Valley, bring their award-winning vocal artistry to Ukiah in this opening concert of Ukiah Community Concert Association’s new season.
Business Casual’s line-up currently consists of Roshun Alur, tenor; Michael Wang, beatboxer; Leslie Baker, soprano; Cassie Greene, alto; and Jacob Chamoun, who is the bass singer and provides other miscellaneous sounds.
“We will take a pop song and render it in big band style,” Chamoun states. “We are evolving constantly in response to the group members, our audience and their interests.” Their concert might feature pop, jazz, Latin and rock, along with audience participation, “an amazing sound system,” and lights.
The six years since the group has formed have been eventful, with frequent gigs at community and corporate events in the Bay Area and the release of their first single, “Ain’t No Way,” in March of 2018. They have also been named National Champions of the Harmony Sweepstakes a cappella competition.
Tickets are $30 general and $15 for youth under 18 in advance, and $35 and $15 for youth at the door. Admission is free for high school and college students with ID at the door, depending on available seats.
