Beyond All Reason Presents: “Love Acatually”

Beyond All Reason, SLU’s one and only all-female a cappella group, is gearing up for the holiday season. Their upcoming concert, “Love Acatually” is this Friday, December 2 from 7 PM – 10 PM in the BSC’s Wool Ballroom. It’s going to feature performances by fellow SLU a capella groups Decadence and Bare Naked Statues, as well the Xtension Chords, all the way from U of I.

Tickets are on sale in the BSC every day from 10 PM – 4 PM for $5, or you can buy them at the door for $7 on the night of the event. According to the event post on Facebook, they’re performing songs by Ingrid Michaelson, Sara Bareilles, Jessie J, Lady Gaga and more! They also “might even throw in a Christmas jingle or two!” And, as we all know, the best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear.
