Wow, Joel Forth is an arrangement machine! He’s supplied us with not one, but two new arrangements in the last couple of weeks. I’m not going to spoil them here, but there’s a chance you’ll get to hear them soon. How soon, you ask? I’m not going to spoil that here, either. As a a teaser, I’ll just say that one song is a contemporary indie rock hit that gets a lot of radio play, and the other is twisted love song from 1992. And rumour has it that Stan, Joel R., and Devin all have new arrangements coming in the next week or two. Your Apocalypse Kow is well on its way to meets its 2014 goal of 10 new songs for Fringe!
Can you imagine? 10 new songs from your a cappella ninjas? Going into their 10th Edmonton Fringe Festival? Which runs for 10 days? That’s a lot of 10s. How many more can we shoehorn in there? Anyone have a kid turning 10 this year who was born on October 10? 10th anniversary? Seen the movie “10” or The Ten or The Ten Commandments or 10 Things I Hate About You in grade 10, 10 times? Or 10 episodes of the TV series Just The 10 Of Us?
And it’s not just new songs we’ll be bringing to the Fringe this year. We’re also dusting off the cobwebs of some older songs that Joel F. hasn’t sung with us yet, so there’s that to look forward to. Are there any old Kow favourites you hope we’ll sing at the Fringe? Let us know in the comments below, or in the comments of our Facebook group.
