Ball in the House - 5 member men's a cappella group
BALL IN THE HOUSE. FIVE GUYS. FIVE MOUTHS. THAT'S IT.
Ball in the House is a tour de force of vocal sound that must be heard and seen to be believed. This five-man, pop/R and B "mouth band" hails from Boston, Massachusetts, where they live and operate out of when not touring on the road. Originally formed as a quartet by founder and current vocal percussionist Jon J., Ball in the House has gone through numerous phases and changes on its way to becoming one of the best-known and most-loved acts in the a cappella community today. Westaf Sponsored event. Thank you Westaf!

Dan Mac Band with Katie Strock as vocallist. This jazz band, which can play just about any kind of music, consists of Dan McElrath- keyboard, Ray Booker-bass, Lucius Oliver-drums and Katie Strock as vocalist. It is a new band formed by Dan McElrath and friends. First time showing for us in Seldovia! Dan McElrath has performed in Seldovia before at previous Music Festivals and other concerts. Dan is a dynamic keyboard and piano player. He is known as Mr. Piano! Ray is a sensational base player. Sometimes his instrument sounds like a base sax! Lucius is the perfect drummer! Then Katie can sing! What a wonderful night we had listening to their music. We did not want them to stop! View Concert Page
