Solid Potato Salad – SSA

You'll never think of the popular potluck side dish the same way again! This quirky song originally appeared in the 1944 MGM musical Broadway Rhythm. Kirby's authentic arrangement retains the characteristic sound and style of the time period, including bright jazz harmonies and swing rhythms. An add-on section near the end introduces a whole picnic of musical goodies before packing it up for a big finish!

(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher

SSAA

A bona fide hit that ranks among Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, this undeniably happy tune is also in the GRAMMY Hall of Fame. Having been recorded by popular artists in nearly every decade since the 1960s, the song truly stands the test of time. A cappella groups will love Kirby Shaw's accessible treatment, with driving rhythms and bright choral sonorities to spare.
