Harvard Din and Tonics

For today’s in studio I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing The Harvard Din and Tonics, who are as classy in person as they are in vocal form. Sticking to traditional style a cappella, having them in the studio was a breath of fresh air. They were definitely the kind of classic gentlemen you don’t see around anymore. This perhaps is most heavily demonstrated by their first song, Ring-a-ding-ding by Good ol’ Frankie Blue Eyes. And judging by the twitter explosion that followed, Danielle and I weren’t the only one’s swooning over their smooth sound. They talked about their awesome world tour, and how they sung with *the* Lionel Richie, which was apparently an incredible experience. They also discussed their new CD, which should be coming out around next month. If it sounds half as good as they were live, I know that I’ll be purchasing that. Following an amazing cover of Scarborough Fair, we chatted about what exactly public radio means to them and they raised a point I don’t think a lot of us realize. Public radio is a commodity that is highly taken for granted in our day and age. We rely on it in the car to break awkward silences and keep us entertained. Thanks again to The Din and Tonics for coming in and performing for us
