Description
About Fleet Street
The Stanford Fleet Street Singers, or "Fleet Street," as we're known to the popular masses of Stanford University, are sixteen men devoted to the professional presentation of pure a cappella. With a focus on musicality as well as humor, Fleet Street provides a balance between elegant harmony and simple buffoonery, mellifluence and melodrama, assonance and disso--well, you get the point.
It's soon obvious, though, that there is more to Fleet Street than this equilibrium of the comical and lyrical. For beneath the group's tuxedo-clad surface lies twenty years of continual Stanford support and representation. Rooted in University tradition, Fleet Street - its members invariably bedecked in cardinal-red bow ties and socks - remains the only group on campus devoted to the preservation of timeless Stanford standards. From the Alma Mater, "Hail, Stanford, Hail!" to the spirited "Come Join the Band," and the raucous "Dirty Golden Bear," these University traditionals continue to find new life through Fleet Street performances.
Fleet Street, in turn, has found direction through its appreciation and presentation of these Stanford songs. In 1988, Stanford's hundredth year of existence (and, interestingly enough, Fleet Street's seventh), the University recruited the group as Stanford ambassadors and proceeded to fly the singers to various sites around the country as part of the Centennial Campaign. With stops in Seattle, New York, Chicago, Portland, and 20th Century Fox Studios in Los Angeles, Fleet Street was the entertainment of choice for Stanford alumni across the nation.
