You know how some people look nothing like they sound? Like, you listen to a radio DJ and he sounds like he's young, tall, in great shape--then you see him one day and he's a short, fat, bald, old man. Well, I had one of those experiences while doing this story. I expected some singing and harmonizing - but I really wasn't ready to hear the deep bass coming from granny. So, the old cliché once again holds true. You truly cannot judge a book by it's cover. In this case it's a pleasant surprise--that's almost never the case with radio DJs. If they looked like they sounded they'd be on TV.

The SouthernYankees are by no means the only four women out there singing in a Barbershop Quartet.

Get this, Sweet Adelines International, the official organization for this type of thing claims 27,000 members, 1,200 quartets and 600 choruses. That's a whole lot more than a barbershop full of harmony right there. As a matter of fact their motto is "Harmonize the World".

14 countries besides the U.S. have Sweet Adeline Chapters -- but they all sing in English. Out of all those ladies, in all those places we have four of the best right here in our own back yard. I've included a slideshow of SouthernYankees. You can get to it by clicking here.
