There is one classic saying that perfectly describes Naturally 7; Never judge a book by its cover. This is the one case where what you see, just isn’t what you get.

Naturally 7 are seven guys from New York City (although two members Roger and Warren Thomas were born in Manchester, England) whose image brings to mind heavy hip-hop beats more akin to a dollar than 50 Cent and yet here they are on tour for the second time as special guests to Michael Buble.

They have become an international phenomenon, wowing, to standing ovations each night, audiences that range from 30 something professionals to a generation for whom Snoop Dogg would have no meaning. So what is it that makes Naturally 7 transcend all barriers?

Despite a repertoire that ranges from their own self-penned, composed and arranged tracks full of Jazz-tinged, gospel, hip-hop, funk and pop to complete surprises like the Phil Collins’ classic “Feel It (In the Air Tonight)”, a Simon & Garfunkel medley and Mr. Mister’s “Broken Wings”, what is truly stunning about Naturally 7 is that they do what they do with absolutely no instruments.

If seeing is believing, then join the more than 5 Million people that have watched Naturally 7’s impromptu performance on the Paris subway on Youtube:

Dubbed VocalPlay by Naturally 7 themselves, they have created a precise art form of using their vocals as instruments. Their entire sound; the rhythms & beats, the bass, the keyboard and up-beat soul vocals are all produced by nothing more than their very versatile voices. Their only problem is complaints to turn the stereo down when they have impromptu rehearsals in hotels.

Roger - 1st Baritone / Rap
Warren - Percussion / 3rd Tenor
Dwight - 2nd Baritone
Armand - Bass
Rod - 1st Tenor / Scratching
