“Wall of Sound” Naturally 7 Vocal Concert

NATURALLY 7

Naturally 7 is an American music group with a distinct a cappella style they call "Vocal Play" which according to group leader Roger Thomas is "the art of becoming an instrument using the human voice to create the sound". They simulate the sounds of an instrumental band using only their voices, mouths and distortion effects. The group was formed in 1999 in New York City. In 2014, Naturally7 landed a National commercial with "Honey Nut Cheerios". Naturally7 toured three world tours with the one and only Micheal Buble as his opening act. These tours have topped the box offices and landed on the Bill Board charts. In 2006 the group was blessed to chart again in several countries with a cover of Phil Collins “Feel It” ( In the Air Tonight).
