Straight No Chaser

If you like your music without instruments, you’re going to love multi-person a cappella group Straight No Chaser.

The YouTube sensation, which originated at Indiana University, has developed into a full-fledged phenomenon with seven Atlantic Records releases; collaborations with the likes of Paul McCartney, Elton John and Dolly Parton; covers of hits from “Go Your Own Way” to “Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag;” and a top 100 ranking on Pollstar’s best touring acts in North America.

During this week’s stop, expect a blend of humor, kitsch and the unadulterated human voice, plus a hearty dose of holiday classics.

4 and 8 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 23. $39.50-$79.50. Taft Theatre, 317 E. Fifth St., Downtown, tafttheatre.org.
