I've slipped into lurking mode these past few months (Graduated law school, have a new job, got married - all good things!)
I just left the Maccabeats to start a new acapella group called StandFour. Things got crazy with the beats, traveling all over the world, and since a lot has gone on in my life, i thought it was time to slow down. Still, I wanted to have this creative outlet.

Great work! I'm not a huge fan of that song, though I really like the lead singer of Fun from his days in The Format.
Sorry things with the Maccabeats went to far too fast, it's a common development with groups. I hope your new project proves to be a suitable outlet, excellent work so far.

I actually kind of like that it's a smaller group (and I see from the members that you raided some of the favorites from the Maccabeats for the new group). We get more of a chance to hear from you all individually as well as together. It was a nice remake of the song too.
Isn't there more to sing about than latkes and candles though?

Lyrhawn, you have no idea how many drafts of lyrics we went through. I was with you - I wanted to get deep into the meaning of the holiday - but everyone else wanted a more toned down, universal, song.
I'm okay with the happy medium. There are some lines in there that are supposed to convey depth.
Rivka, haha, I'm sorry - Hatrack will be first to know next time.
