AUDITIONS!!!

Hello, FUtones fans!

Hope you were able to catch us at our performance at the contra festival Moondance on September 8th -- the crowd was one of our most receptive and we had a lot of fun!

OR, you might have seen us traipsing around White Oaks at the annual President's Picnic for the Furman freshmen, hosted by Dr. Shi. Another fun night! We think the freshman class looks like an awesome group, and we're looking forward to getting some fantastic "newbies" at auditions this year!

Speaking of auditions... here are the dates and times:

Sunday, September 23rd, from 6-8
Monday, September 24th, from 6-8

You can find us in Daniel Music Building - there will be posters and signs indicating where we are and where you should go to find us! The audition process is very simple and painless; we try our best to make it a fun experience. After all, you're coming to sing for us, and probably our favorite thing is singing and enjoying music. So everybody wins.

Monday night, we'll decide on the people we'd like to invite to callbacks, our final round of auditions. We'll let all those who have auditioned know about our decisions, and those who are invited to callbacks will get some music to prepare. Tuesday night there will be FUtones available to help teach that music if you want help, and Wednesday night we will hold callbacks. That same night we'll let everyone know the final decisions, and Thursday (September 27th) we'll have our official first rehearsal with the newbies!

So that's basically how the audition process works. We're looking for all vocal parts, as well as new vocal percussionists, so if you don't sing but you love to beatbox, then please come show us your stuff! If you have questions, or for some reason you can't make either audition date, let us know! You can reach the President at kira.vine@furman.edu, and you can reach the Musical Director at emily.poe@furman.edu.

ALSO - look for us at the Activities Fair this Thursday from 4:30-6:30! Come by, say hi, and see what we're all about!
