The demands of a semi-pro post-collegiate group can be great, and the closer you get to being a pro group, the greater they can be. We talk with Ball In The House about those trade-offs, and how they manage them. We also talk about performances vs. competition, and about how they keep things fresh with so many performance dates a year. They sound great singing some songs for us, too! Recorded in 2016.
