2009 wrap-up
December 13, 2009
By: Christine

It's officially the end of the fall 2009 semester!

Firstly, a big THANK YOU to all of you were able to come out to our semesterly show last weekend, AiRTV! We hope you had as much fun watching us as we did performing for you.

That now concludes all our shows and gigs for fall 2009.. But do not worry! We'll be back in full force for the spring 2010 semester! You could find us back on Sprouls every Monday at noon starting January 25. We will also be taking on new projects (a new CD perhaps?!) so be on the lookout for more information on that.

Thanks again for all of your support this semester and last, and we hope to see all your smiling faces next semester.

Happy holidays to all!


Fall Show is THIS WEEKEND!
December 01, 2009
By: Christine


(click above for full-sized flier)
Believe it or not, the week of fall show has already come!

Our semesterly showcase of songs, skits, and choreo will take place on December 4 & 5 @ 8pm. There are two different locations for the show; you could find us in 101 Morgan on Friday, and 2060 VLSB on Saturday, so mark your calendars! More event details can be found in the event description below in the Upcoming Events section.

We will be showcasing songs from this semester, including many never-before-performed new arrangements, intermingled with skits.

Why spend the evening flipping through useless television shows when you could watch AiR instead? We hope you'll join us!


West Coast 2009 Wrap-Up.. & More!
November 17, 2009
By: Christine

We hope you were all able to catch us at the West Coast A Cappella Showcase this past Friday! The performances both night were excellent. There have been videos of our performance circulating around Youtube, which you could access by clicking our Youtube link on the left side of our page.

December is just around the corner which means it is almost time for our fall show. We have been working tremendously hard and will continue to do so until the day of our show. So please save the dates of December 4 and 5, 8pm. More information on fall show will be coming soon!

Finally, we'd like to apologize for not keeping the website updated sooner in regards to the Cal-Stanford Big Sing. We had just found out on Sunday that it was canceled, and our sincerest, deepest apologies for the misinformation on our site. We, too, had prepared a Big Sing set and had it ready to be performed, and we are regretful to not have been able to perform it. We hope this does not deter you from coming to see us at future events.


West Coast is THIS WEEKEND!
November 10, 2009

AiR is Back for Fall 2009!
September 07, 2009
By: Christine

With Berkeley back in session for about two weeks now, AiR has been working hard to ensure another great a cappella-filled year for you all!

We've been busy performing at various events throughout the past few weeks, including a welcome night at Sonoma State, various events around Berkeley's campus, and even a wedding in San Jose. We would like to thank everyone who has thus far invited us to sing at their events, and also those who came to support us at our shows.

We also had our first Sproul show last Monday, August 31, 2009 at 12pm. You could find us underneath Sather Gate every Monday at noon (except for holidays), and we will continue to bring you new songs. Don't miss out!

Check back for other upcoming events throughout the semester. If you're interested in hiring us, we would love to sing for you! Get in contact with us through the "Hire AiR" or "Contact AiR" tabs to your left.

Otherwise, we hope to see you on Sproul and at other future performances soon.

Go Bears!


Our time is up!
May 11, 2009
By: Justin

And with the conclusion of Super Sproul today, AiR is officially done for the Spring 2009 semester! We've had one heck of a year and we can't fully express our appreciation to everyone who shared in some part of it, however small, whether it was on Sproul, at a show, at a gig, or even electronic comments via e-mail or Youtube. You all contributed to a very special year for us and for that we are truly thankful.

There's still music to be made, as we are embarking on our annual Spring Tour as soon as finals are over (see event details below for our tour show). But do not fear! We will be hard at work over the summer and look for us to come out strong with new music and new faces in the fall!

Good luck with finals and have a great summer! We will see you all next school year!

We've finally got a copy of our ICCA set on Youtube! For those of you who missed it and those of you who just want to watch them over and over again, you can find the playlist of all 3 songs in a row (in HD*, no less!) here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVe6_9HCda4&feature=PlayList&p=8D977DB05BB92A86&index=0&playnext=1


* Youtube now allows playback of high-res videos in HD! Just click the "HD" button in the lower-right corner to switch! It will take a bit longer to load, but it's totally worth it!


March on!
March 09, 2009
By: Justin

Wondering what we've been up to? Glad you asked! It turns out that March is going to be a slow month for us. But FEAR NOT! We are hard at work as usual to bring you the finest a cappella we can!


You can still find us every Monday at noon by Sather Gate. We sing regardless of weather and distractions!

1) Normal: in front of Sather Gate
2) Construction: if the Sather Gate restoration is too noisy, we sing in-between Dwinelle and Wheeler.
3) Rain: come join us in the safety of the Cesar Chavez Breezeway (in-between the Student Learning Center and the Cal 1 Card office)

We rotate songs and soloists every week so you can expect to hear something fresh every week!


Other than that, we are preparing for our Spring Show, which will be on Fri and Sat, April 17-18 in 105 North Gate Hall! Theme and other details are still hush-hush and under wraps, but expect to get more details from us as the date approaches! We've got a bunch of new arrangements in store as well as some older ones we're bringing back so look forward to it!


ICCA Results!
February 22, 2009
By: Justin

Artists in Resonance competed at the crowded Berkeley quarterfinal (8 groups!) and managed to come out as 2nd runner-up (3rd place)! We are indescribably appreciative of all our fans who showed up to support us and the raucous audience reception our set produced! We sang our hearts out and hope everyone enjoyed what we hope was the most energetic set of the night!

We ended up with a final score of 336 points, a mere 24 away from 2nd place. Although our ICCA run ends here, we wish the two advancing groups, the California Golden Overtones and the UCSB Naked Voices, the best of luck!!!

That's a Wrap!
December 10, 2008
By: Justin

To those of you who made it out to one of our shows, we can't thank you enough and we hoped you enjoyed it! We were really proud to be able to debut so many new arrangements and we hope to do about the same next semester, so look forward to it! Our repertoire page has been updated to include our new arrangements.

With the passing of show and Super Sproul and the end of classes today, AiR is officially done for the Fall semester. But look for us to come out strong next semester: our first Sproul performance will be Monday, January 26!

We will be returning all of our members next semester, so we will NOT be auditioning for new members. We will be auditioning for the next school year at the end of Spring semester, so you can look for announcements about auditions then.

We will be posting a few select songs from our show on our Youtube account... once we're all less busy. Look for them in late December towards the end of our finals.

GOOD LUCK ON FINALS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM AiR!
