Tag: Fred

FRED is a comic barbershop quartet formed in 1990 by members of the Marietta Big Chicken Chorus.
Despite their focus on comedy, FRED produces a very refined sound. Their performance in 1999 at the SPEBSQSA International Championship made them gold medalists, making them the first comedy quartet to ever win first place at the International level. In 2010, Storm Front became the first comedy quartet to win since then.
FRED’s take on the “comedy quartet” was original, in that they have not relied on spoken dialog in between songs to set up the humor in the next song, as most comedy quartets do. Instead, their humor is built in to their lyrics, musical arrangements, and stage presentation. Parodies are a staple of their performances, and their parodies (well-known songs set to different words) often have Barbershop “in-jokes” where they poke fun at other quartets and singers (by name!), themselves, and even the contest judges.
