New Dudes, New Tunes
No Promises welcomes two new members to its lineup in 2025, both young singers with extensive tight harmony experience. Tenor and WLWT-TV executive producer Buck Hinman fell in love with a cappella singing during his time at Wake Forest University, a passion he honed through three separate appearances at international barbershop quartet competitions. Recent Xavier University graduate Chancellor Waye is a bass singer who directed of his university’s a cappella group, Harmon-X, on his way to a degree in choral education. Waye manages a venue in northern Cincinnati and serves as associate music director at Bellermine Chapel. In 2024, No Promises welcomed to its ranks St. Xavier High School’s newly-tenured director of choirs, Joey Pace. Similarly coming to the group by way of barbershop music, Joey has performed with Southern Gateway Chorus and Prism and enjoys publishing multi-track a cappella recordings. Bios and photos of singers available here.
The Three Bald Guys have a consistent roster but are in the habit of constantly adapting new popular favorites for their repertoire. The June program at The Redmoor will see innovative arrangements of three celebrated 90s hits: the cherished ballad Angel by Sarah McLaughlan, Eric Clapton’s bluesy Change The World and Extreme’s timeless More Than Words.
No Promises has likewise been working up some new tunes for debut at The Redmoor, including Amy Winehouse’s Valerie, Simon & Garfunkel’s Scarborough Fair and The Eagles’ Life in the Fast Lane.
