Big Show Run-down

Man, has it been exciting to be a part of NTS lately! The big show was wildly successful, and we apologize to those we had to turn away when we ran out of space. Check out the videos from the show on YouTube. While you're browsing the video collection, take a look at the new music video and the making of the video. The video is for the song "Draggin' the Line," a studio track from the new album.

Which leads to the next point... the new CD! Titled "Shifting Gears," it is now available from the members of the group or online (email info@not2sharp.com to order). Also, check out the full track listing on the Discography page. We promise you'll love it!


Are you ready for the Big Show?!

This Friday, May 8th, in the MUB Strafford Room is the Spring Big Show! This sure-to-please performance will feature new songs, familiar favorites, a brand new intro video and antics as usual.

Also, we are excited to announce that it will feature the debut of the new album, Shifting Gears! CDs will be on sale for special one-time low prices: $10 for the new CD, or $15 for both CDs. As if you did not already have reason enough to come, this show is FREE; no tickets required. So take a break from the studying none of us are doing and come procrastinate with Not Too Sharp!


Presenting... The Hyannis Sound



Cape Cod's boys of summer, the Hyannis Sound, trekked up to UNH on April 2nd as a part of their annual spring tour. They delivered an awesome performance to bring joy to the heart all of the true acappella fans who packed into Murkland Auditorium. The show ended with a joint performance of the song Solsbury Hill. We enjoyed the Sound as much as the enthusiastic audience, and look forward to seeing them again next spring!


NTS Entertains the NH Executive Council



On April 1st we loaded up a bus and headed to Concord for a performance at the NH State House. After enjoying the beauty and history of the building, we provided an energetic lift to the meeting and the morning. Starting with the close harmonies of the National Anthem, and following up with the songs "Dancin' in the Moonlight" and the Doobie Brothers' "Black Water," we brought acappella to the capital. Thank you to Gov. Lynch and the councilors for inviting us!


UNH Campus Tour 2009

Our first year of existence earned NTS recongition as "that group that sings everywhere." Well, it's time to renew our vows with the UNH campus, and this semester, it is our goal to visit EVERY DORM.

As of Spring Break, we have been to Alexander, Scott, Stoke, SERC C, and Congreve. We are looking forward to the performances we have scheduled for Williamson, Mills and the Gables. Is your dorm missing from the list? It shouldn't be! Contact info@not2sharp.com to schedule a show in your building now!


Twice the Excitement

Two fantastic news snippets:

1) Welcome to Tyler Hixson, the newest Fella. Tyler is a freshman, and will be singing baritone. We are pumped to have him!

2) NTS's rendition of "Ban the Tube Top" is Reel Big Fish's cover of the week! Their Myspace Music page features the video from Not Too Sharp's winter 2008 Big Show.



NTS in the News

The group got some name-dropping in The New Hampshire newspaper recently, due to their involvement with the Wildcat Santa charity.


In response to great support from fans and businesses around NH this year, the Not Too Sharp guys decided to pass the buck- literally. The group donated 300 dollars worth of toys to the Wildcat Santa Toy Drive at the Dec. 12th show - $150 from the group fund, and $150 contributed by the members personally. "We have been blessed with great fans and great opportunities as a group and we are thrilled to take the generosity that has been shown to us and share it with those in need during this holiday season," business manager Ross Seavey said.


Winter Show 2008

Despite nearly being thwarted by ice storms and power outages, fans completely filled the Strafford Room for the Winter Show. Tickets and donations raised almost $1000 for the ACS. The group members also decided to respond to the consistent generosity of our audiences, and donated a load of toys to UNH's Wildcat Santa drive.

Thank you to everyone who came to the show! For anyone who didn't make it, check out six of the songs from the show on YouTube, including Belleau Wood, Ban the Tube Top, Solsbury Hill and Silver Bells. Happy holidays, and we'll see you after winter break!
