A Cappella Version of “She Loves Everybody”

Posted by D.A. on Wednesday, December 9th, 2009

One of our most steadfast supports, Angela in Minneapolis, just sent us this clip of an a cappella group covering “She Loves Everybody.” Max and I used to be engineers at Harvard’s campus studio and, to our frustration, often had to record a cappella groups. Luckily, the Octopodes from Johns Hopkins University did a great job on this one. Extra props to the beat-boxer for his innovative dance moves.

Dancing Like A White Girl Wedding Video?!

Posted by chesterfrench on Friday, December 4th, 2009

We had this video sent into us with the following note:

This is a video from Matt and Lindsey’s Jamaican wedding at the Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton on 11/28/2009. This song by Masta Ace & Edo G (featuring Chester French) ended up being the hottest of the night, played twice during the reception and once later on at the resort disco. 

Nuts. Congrats, Matt and Lindsay. The guy chanting “Dancing like a white girl” over and over again is incredible.

Chester French in the New York Times Again!

Posted by chesterfrench on Wednesday, October 14th, 2009

ny_timesWe were featured in a story about gondola rides in Central Park:

Then there are those that never quite get off the water. In the middle of a cruise with a lovely South African couple, a rowboat approached carrying members of the pop band Chester French. They circled us, declared their fame then jumped on the gondola, crying out, “This is a pirate takeover!” (only with an unprintable modifier starting with “f” between “pirate” and “takeover”). Apparently they were shooting a music video. The situation struck me as slightly uncomfortable, until a week later, when a YouTube search of “Central Park gondola” brought up a hit titled “Chester French Postpones My Marriage Proposal.”
