In the mood for some music with hints of spookiness? We scoured the performances of Syracuse University’s a cappella groups and found a few to get you in the Halloween spirit.
Otto Tunes – “bury a friend”
Otto Tunes takes on this eerie Billie Eilish song written from the perspective of the monster under her bed. (Psst…want to see Otto Tunes IRL? Their 10th Annual Cockappella fundraiser concert is Saturday, Oct. 22. Oy Cappella and the University at Buffalo’s Buffalo Chips will also be performing!)
Check out the lyrics to “bury a friend” on Genius.
Groovestand – “Superstition”
Groovestand performs this Stevie Wonder classic about the scary things that come with believing in superstitions.
Check out the lyrics to “Superstition” on Genius.
Orange Appeal – “Monster Mashup”
Orange Appeal brings a different spin to this Halloween classic by Bobby “Boris” Pickett, “Monster Mash.”
