In April of 2008, we won the Sweet Adelines Region 19 Quartet Championship with a Region 19 history making score, qualifying us for the Sweet Adelines International Quartet Competition in Hawaii, where we placed Fourth out of fifty-two top international quartets. Whew! In April 2009, we won the Mid-Atlantic Harmony Sweepstakes and then became the National Harmony Sweepstakes Champions in May 2009. In October 2009, we competed in Nashville in the Sweet Adelines International Quartet Competition where we became the 2010 Third Place medalist Quartet. Whew! The quartet then auditioned for the NBC/Sony A Cappella reality show The Sing Off. We were chosen from thousands of singing group to be one of the eight groups to compete on the first season of the show. With such amazing talent in the competition, we were very fortunate to be selected. What an incredible experience!
